Who?

Who has the eyes the 'spanse of the skies
A love that extends generations?

Who has the will to love us and still
Find time to watch over creation?

Who has the hands to cup all the sands
Has named every star in the heavens?

Who takes off blinds that narrows our minds
Admonition is something that gladdens.


When all is done He's still the One
Who loves me despite all my sin.

To pull me apart and give me His Heart
And bring me together again.

(This wasn't a very good one but the first couple of lines just kept going through my head and I had to get them out lol)

Past Participle

Another day
Another dawn
Another life
Another song

The things since past
Things long since gone
Are now forgotten
In light of dawn

My Heart

You've given me everything
The very breath I breathe
So I will give it back to you

The birds sing to you in the morning
The crickets chirp Your Name at night
It is Holy in all of Your creation
Even the silence sings of Your grace

The darkest of nights are bright with your Presence
The brightest of suns flinch at Your Light

The only praises worthy of You
Are the praises made up of the love You've given
So give us the words to speak
And give us the courage to speak them loud

My Heart will beat
And one day show them all
Who keeps them alive

Haiku Poems

Oh, so Wonderful
Your light that fills me up, Lord
So Precious to me

Your beauty so vast
My heart cannot help but skip
At your lovely face

Your harmony, God
To my melody sings out
Like beautiful twirls

That swirl in moonlight
Calling out to me like home
I am Yours alone

A Prayer

I want to give my heart to you, O Lord.
Fully and completely God.
You and You alone know me fully.
And yet You have loved me more than anyone.

My heart resides with you, O God.
Give it to whom you will.
Please be gentle on me, your servant, Father.
Your heart for a people lost makes me weep.
Makes me move.

Your Love is everlasting, Abba.
Your peace fills my consciousness.
Let your grace rain down on me
Don't turn away from me, a disloyal child.

Make my heart beat for you
Let me breathe in your Life.
Push me to the brink
And catch me before I fall.

Hold me in your arms like you used to.
The way a Father does his daughter.
Don't let the darkness take me in.
Don't let him win over me.

For you are Almighty
The Lord above all
All will bow before you
They can't help but worship you, Oh God.

Help us to remember you in times of great sorrow
And bring us back to the mountain.
Cover us in your presence, Jesus.
Saviour of my soul.

Heal us
Keep us
Love us
Forever
Please never let us go.

Numb

This was from the worst night of my life. I wrote it with my heart so it's not really the best poem ever but...yeah:

A piece of my soul is ripped from my heart
I lie here numb from the inside out
Wishing for something to keep me
Safe from the darkness that is now developing
A tear falls
And You’re here with me

How do you know?...Part 2 (Theological version)

How do you know if you're really called to be something? Like God called me to be a missionary but I also want to be a missionary. If I become a missionary based solely on the idea that God has already blessed me and without further inquiry then might going into that particular field hurt the Body of Christ rather than help it? Perhaps I would do a number, emotionally, on the people I come across as I was not supposed to be a missionary and I would hurt them spiritually in that matter, as well, therefore making it harder for other missionaries in that area to help them to recover. But whatever field I am blessed to be in is lacking because I decided to be a missionary, instead. But, on the other hand, I cannot inquire of God for the rest of my life, assuming something might change. Afraid to move because I might hurt someone. That shows a lack of faith that God would tell me His plan for my life.

How do you know if you're blessed to be with someone? What if you feel like God is saying that He is blessing you to be with that person in the future but not now? Is that set in stone? Couldn't something one of you does change that blessing? And still, while they're still your brother in Christ, you need to love them as such and not think of them constantly as your possible future husband or whatever because 1) it may not happen and 2) you're not even dating yet and that's slightly creepy. What if you feel like you'll just end up hurting them and they deserve someone so amazing? Someone with a better sense of humour and who is more in love with God than you are. Are you questioning God, and, therefore, showing Him your lack of faith in who He has blessed to be with you because you feel like he's too good for you? Or maybe blessing someone so great to be with you is His way of showing you how great you really are.

How do you know if someone's Christian? Is it appropriate to ask such a question? It's a heart thing and we can't possibly know and of course there's the "good fruit" aspect but beyond that...can someone out their just look into their eyes and just know? Because I think that would be very helpful to people in churches following leaders who don't believe what they preach and the people on t.v. who are only in it for the money. To differentiate between real and fake is so hard. But some people really don't know that what they're doing is wrong so you can't blame them, right? You could even say that of anyone who does anything wrong. If they understood how much they hurt God...if they saw Him cry over them or if they even saw how His people pray over them, maybe they'd know. But how could anyone really know what they do to God? How much we hurt the Almighty?

I'm going off topic now and I don't know what else to say. That's all I suppose.
