Early Morning Light

Hello all. I am new here and thought I would share. Intimacy with Jesus is so sweet...was had, it is always longed for. None other can fill the void. So listen close when He calls and breathe deep the nourishment for the soul that makes strong the weak.

Early Morning Light


In the early morning light when the stars begin to fade,

when You call for me

to bow in silence, as the birds begin their serenade

and the night begins to flee,

...to listen for the still small voice that fills my heart with song.

As you draw me near

under Your shadow, close to Your heart is where I belong.

I will not fear.

My trust is in You… My God my Savior and Lord.

My life is in Your hands.

On Your mercy I fall, in Your grace I stand, Your Spirit poured

like the sands of time,

in the hour glass, time slips away as we are close and yet

You send me out,

after You’ve heard my cries and wiped my tears to share. What?

You Jesus! … Without a doubt.

read this aloud this morning, it is a very special gift you've shared.
"without a doubt"

Your poetry is very melodic. I can see why your husband turns them into songs. The Lord gifted you with some great talent. Beautiful piece, nicely written.

Thank you both! I remember English class back in school many years ago, learning about iambic pentameter. Can't remember what it is...something about meter I think. This is the extent of any training. Just hoping to comfort others with what comforts me. I will have to find the ...I think it was called...constructive criticism corner, for some pointers. I am so encouraged to write every time I come back here!
Many Blessings!
