You Alone Satisfy!

I ask myself a question today

If today is the last day

What would I need the most

Before I step into eternity

I realize my last memories won't be that of offense or grief

My greatest desires would fade away and seem trivial,

In that moment just before my journey is over

The abuse, the hate, the anger would lose its power

And my heart would be overwhelmed

Knowing that the Lord planned for me to encounter His love through the cross and the resurrection.

And before I breathe my very last my only one cry would be-" I need You Jesus" and then I would step in its reality.

As I still breathe, may I not wait for that day to realize

Help me understand that I need You every waking moment

Yes I need You more, more than the greatest desires.

There's none who loves me more.

None who paid the price for my reckless living.

You valued me more than I value myself

Yet I am constantly running to embrace the temporary pleasures

Not recognising that my heart is deep and without end

And so foolish to think that the temporary things could ever satisfy

The deep can only be satisfied by You

You have placed eternity in me

And it can only be satisfied by You

Help me answer your gentle knock at the door of my heart each day

You relentlessly pursue me in love

You demand nothing but in fact became nothing for my sake

So help me sweet Spirit to count each day precious

Free my wandering heart to only Your love that satisfies

Help me know my worth that You couldn't imagine eternity without me
Help me understand love is a sacrifice

And cross is the evidence of this truth

Love so powerful that death couldn't confine it in a tomb

That its jealousy for me consumed the dark clutches of the grave

And came back alive to make a home in me

So Holy Spirit live through me

May my flesh be crucified

Your love burn bright

And may a hurting world witness Your relentless love

Corporate Tyranny

They break us and continue to break us With hours unending With policies unfriendly Relentlessly breaking our soul Cries stream from within stifled by voices Comply it's the culture that's how things go But is that what we were taught as kids? I remember lessons on being brave for the cause of justice and more Think people with your mind and heart Do you wish to leave this as a legacy Your children to bear the burden of precedence you set to climb the corporate ladder By corrupting the system Little by little Hour by hour Soul by soul Finally, you got everything but did you gain your soul?

From wander to wonder

What do you do? When you wander aimlessly And the fire you once had was quenched You are misunderstood even by your own Rejected and cast away You feel lonely and isolated You feel you don't belong or can't connect And deep inside you feel empty and spent Tired yet going on from one day to the next Your past mistakes haunt you And an enemy that constantly attacks and doesn't back down And a world that constantly tempts you or makes you feel that you are not enough And your thoughts that should be a friend but act like a foe instead It haunts you with a past that makes you see the sins and a heart that's scarlet red Meet me "Great I am" in my wandering in this wilderness like you met Moses And transform my I am's Where mundane turns to musing And despair turns to delight Where wander turns to wonder Where wilderness turns to worship As you show me a bush burning and yet not consumed Reminding me you have inter...

In to me, you see!

Before your father and mother conceived You I conceived you You were with me in my heart, my very imagination and my mind I kissed you with my breath in your mother's womb I sealed you to be mine forever before the foundations of the earth I marked you with the Spirit You didn't choose me but I chose you to be mine forever Simply because I made you with love I am the very breath in your lungs The blood that flows through your veins I have hemmed you and surrounded you within and everywhere with my love You cannot escape my presence I know your wanderings, and I know where you hide My love is present with you in the deepest pit of your despair and disappointment And I will not leave you there But I have raised you from the pit to the power of my faithful and steady love To proclaim and touch people with compassion and grace As I touch you every day with my love to bring you life My words chiselling your flesh into submission to my loving authority to reflect...
