PSALM 46:10 "Be Still and Know That I Am God"

Be still...
Yet turmoil rages within,
threatens to unravel
the fragile state of mind.

and know...
Consciously, belief is there
but forces stronger than faith
rip and tear it apart,
waging war against trust
in my Higher Power.

that I...
At the very center of
my being.
A deep yearning for His comfort
begins to enfold me.
Tension slowly abates.
Breathing becomes less labored

am God.
and I let myself rest in His arms.
The sound of His beating heart
fills me with peace
and
I am still and know
that He is God.

Wow what an extrapolation! It's interesting that no matter how mad, confused, disenchanted with life, disappointed with what God does (or does not do), We who believe always return to Him. Don't you think? I like.

Amen.

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
