Hey guys! Long time, no speak! Either way, I'm back and I've decided to tap into my old poetry days. The problem is that we ALL often are searching everywhere except the right place to fulfill our empty places... but trust me, there is ONLY ONE thing that can satisfy. It's the love - of - God.
No good thing does the Lord withhold from us (Psalm 84:11 NLT)
... so just receive it!
I pray the following is a blessing to you!
Be Filled.
STOP!
Stop trying to fill these voids with things
Houses, cars, jobs & extra grand wedding rings
You think it's enough, but much like a tapeworm
It eats you from the inside & the hunger still burns
WHY
Why's it not enough to just have what you want
Outward looking happy but stuck putting on a front
The reason is cause things never ever will sustain
All trends get old, nothing ever stays the same
But WAIT
There is one thing that’s sure to last
It’s a promise from the God of our future & past
The promise of a faithful LOVE that’s sure to be enough
Springing up from a well already inside of us
So HOW
How do we access this new life
How do we fill these voids and find something to suffice
First I’d say let’s rid of all the greed
Realize that Jesus is the ONLY thing we need
Look at what He gave and look at what we have
Be not so spoiled by blessings that pure joy doesn’t last
Let the knowledge of His goodness be enough to fulfill
Let His presence around you make you happy still
Like a child when they know that their father is home
Let His presence be the reason you never feel alone
Alone or dry or even empty again
Let His love crash over while You’re in the palm of His hand
Open your heart and let it begin
To every deep crevice let the sunshine in
God doesn’t withhold, so let go of what was
Unreserved, let Him in. He’s waiting on us
