I find poetry to be a good way to slow down and take stock
of what is happening in my life.
Sometimes it surges from within me and I
consider that a blessing. Other times I have to wait (a really long time) to
nurture an idea until it is ready to be birthed, I consider that an even
greater blessing. Sometimes the title comes to me in an instant, without me
having to think too hard.
This time I settled for an
abstract-but-not-that-abstract-if-you-really-think-about-it title. Something
that I need, something that everyone needs to affirm their direction.
Reassurance.
There is something about “surety” that offers you an
uncompromised security. I feel like God has been trying to make me understand
that is what He offers, but my human thinking cannot comprehend His
supernatural promises. So this is something He reminded me about Him. This is
His reassurance.
Leave it to me
I will take care
Of your worry
And you will share
All the good things
The divine love
The truth it brings
The fruit thereof
My existence
The perfection
The completeness
Eclipse your sin
Those shortcomings
That regretful
Shamefulness stings
But be hopeful
I do take care
Of all the things
Do not despair
My good news rings
The morning light
Defeats the dark
The dead of night
Will leave no mark
See the fullness
Of my glory
All the goodness
Of my story
Know the son
He is the one.
