    "The Heart Of Love"

    All my life

    I've looked for Your heart

     

    each day

    brings me closer to You

     

    each moment is joy

    just knowing

    a little of You

     

    All of my days

    were lost in a cloud

    each one hazy

    knowing nothing

    of You

     

    I've searched for Your heart

    not knowing I was

    alone

    with myself

    alone

    with my friends

     

    All of my ways

    were held in a shroud

    darkness

    denying Your light

     

    One day I read John

    and..

    a light came up burning

    desire to know Your heart

     

    What a model You are

    to us all

    what losses

    we bring into our lives

    when we lose

    our desire for You

     

    What joy You give me

    writing this rhyme

    not knowing the next word

    but for You

     

    All my life

    I've been in Your heart

    Thank you so much

    for Your love

     

    All of our world

    is washed in Your love

    why won't we

    bow down to You

     

    All my life

    I've looked deep for love

    Thank You........

    for opening my eyes.

    Yes Sam, Praise the Lord for God's Love to balance all the hatred and evil in the world. And how Jesus led by example... "When he was abused, he did not return abuse; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he entrusted himself to the one who judges justly." How else could we even attempt to understand and practice the depth of God's Love when commanded to; "Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which mistreat you.", something that doesn't come naturally but only by the Spirit of God. Blessings, W.

    You are so right when you say that we cannot understand God's plan. People today, like modern people of all ages, want to understand and know God according to how they want Him to act and be. One of my most favorite sayings from Christ is John ch. 8; v 58. In fact that whole chapter explains a whole lot about Christ as they were trying to trick him and were not clever enough to. He turned all their deceitful arguments against them but almost always, not always did it in a loving way. Jesus is God, I don't believemit; I Know It!

    Amen Sam, God said it, that settles it... whether we believe it or not. Reminds me of those popular bumper stickers that always bugged me; "God is my Co-pilot" , WRONG - God is my pilot... period, as I am not equal with HIm. Blessings, W.

    Amen! There's no greater love then him., he set us free and teach us all about love. His uncondinal love. Halliluah to our Almighty king.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
