I don't like seeing videos of myself, but this poem is the first I have ever written that needed to be heard, not just read. It is a simple overflow of my current place in life spiritually, emotionally, mentally. Enjoy!
Walking Psalm
There are
only wisps of clouds in the sky
Just enough
to remind me
That we all
need rain to grow
The moon is
white
Enough to
remind me
That the
stars come out only at night
But for now,
the sky is blue
The sun is
warm
And Your
faithfulness
And Your
grace
Are at the
forefront
In these
moments between the storms
And
everywhere my eyes fall
I see a
thousand gifts
Gifts for my
heart to grasp
Even if my
mind cannot
You. Are. Good.
And if there
was nothing else given to me
Let my
spirit say
It is
enough.
For today,
if not for tomorrow
It. Is.
Enough.
Because
light or dark
Whispers or
shouts
You are here
and You are more
Than what my
life's about
You. Are. My
Life.
And every
day two hundred little lives touch mine
With joy and
eagerness and innocence
And I
realize
Sun shine or
rain fall
I have so
much more than I deserve
A thousand
reasons
To live and
to sing and to worship
And to give
You the glory and the thanks
That You
deserve
For You are
full of grace and
You. Are. Good.
