assurance astounding
"it's been a real hard past few days
but so so good because of that!"
a heart so in love with Jesus
a heart longing to surrender all
a heart's cry
a heart's desire
to know Him more
to be wholly His
no matter the cost
and I must ask my heart
if I could say these words
and mean them
I know beyond doubt
that the heart who spoke
these words does truly mean them
could I say the same?
can I say the same?
no matter what?
no matter how deep the
disappointment?
no matter how ununderstandable
the circumstances?
no matter the depth of pain?
what gives a heart
this assurance so astounding
that God is good all the time?
even when I would have placed
the scene on pause
and done a little editing...
and oh the depth of disaster which
would ensue if I were in control!
and who am I to make the
assumption
that somehow He must
have missed a cue?
forgive me, Abba
for I know that I know
that You make no mistakes
I know that You work in ways
radical
mysterious
outrageous
extravagant
so all will see and know...
so I will see and know
that it was YOUR hand...
not any human endeavor
and this heart must remember:
all prayers so circled
all prayers so radical
are encircled in colors
in hues
the spectrum
of the rainbow...
encircled by circles
drawn by Your
own
hand
and You are not
bound by time and space
and in those colors vibrant
of a rainbow
are You not promising
to be faithful?
and as You revealed to
Abraham and Isaac
You will provide.
