Your whisper
cool in the night
penetrates my heart
giving birth to insight.
Your Spirit glides
along my side
until it finds a space -
an empty heart place.
You take root and give birth
to fill the voids
and reveal my worth
to the eyes that never saw
all that you see
as you look at me.
Your movement is strong
and come on fast
until your Truth is seen
vivid as a dream
by those very eyes
That seem to hide
alone
in my bathroom mirror.

Wingfiea, I love your blog!
This poem is beautiful and the sentiments you echoed in your previous note on discouragement are something I have often felt too. However, lately, God has greatly been encouraging me to embrace a different mode of thought: to not automatically reach for despair (which tends to be my natural inclination) but to stand strong. To learn to eagerly expect good, remembering that no matter how many promises He has made, they are always “yes” in Jesus Christ and that He will lead us in triumphal procession…no matter how dismal things may appear to be at the moment. *HUG!!!*
