Poetry
Sometimes I sin
I fail
I fall
and so I sit awhile
at the feet
of the One
Who sits on
the Mercy seat
and I rest.
I rest in the Lord
as I eat the life-giving grass
and drink the peaceful water.
I listen.
I learn
I wait for restoration
I sit with Christ
in the Heavenly realm.
I remember that
I am an inheriting daughter
as the wind of the Spirit visits.
And so I spread out my wings.
I float…I fly.
I see with the eagle’s eye.
I am mesmerized
by all that I bypass in the sky
because the place I land is high
I land on God’s plan
and then I rest once again.
I try not to fall
but sometimes I slip
and so I sit
and rest
I eat that green, green,
Good, good Father’s organic grass;
not the toxic enemy’s pesticide grass
that looks alright
but tastes like chemicals,
or the fake decorative grass
found at the impulse marketing
station at Target
but is of the world and the flesh.
I eat a real God salad
I taste and see that the Lord is good
I drink that Living Water
and am nourished
like a watered plant
my leaves no longer droop
I am that tree by
the streams of Living Waters
again and again.
Amen.
I flourish.
I bear fruit
as I walk.
I run.
I soar…
and I go back to God
for more.
This is how I roll.
No time for shame
or blame.
No guilt.
No condemnation.
With my eyes on the Prize
like a sunflower
following the sun.
Like a Son follower.
Even if I experience
an eclipse,
praise is still on my lips.
This time I don’t slip.
Because I love the
Sabbath lifestyle.
