anyone else terrified of sharing what's actually inside of them?
writing and sharing a song or poem is just so personal... such a window into the soul that it's very scary and makes you feel very vulnerable.
a friend recently said he was in a place where he was o.k. with people not necessarily liking his songs. they were a result of his prayer life and a result of what God is doing in Him and it didn't matter what others opinions were about the music or words, etc...
so i'm taking a very scary leap and i'm going to share a "poem" {if that's what you want to call it} with you.
i'm ok if it's doesn't make sense to you.
i'm ok if you don't like it.
i didn't write it to be liked, i wrote it because it's what was inside of me at the time and for some reason i would like to remember that. and it certainly isn't finalized, i'm all about changing and working on something until it's exactly how you want it. but usually i like to keep it to myself until i feel it is completed, so you're getting the 3rd of many drafts. ok, ok, enough rambling. ;)
I am Yours
desiring grace
needing forgiveness
wanting life
a renewed obsession
running desperately
to find You
seeking endlessly
to know You
this heart
so quickly turned
blinded by vanity
rescue me from this
hour of harlotry
and deceit
lift me up
to Your arms
of mercy
even in my treachery
You call to me
run to me
dance over me
who am i?
that You would search
till You have found
oh, Your relentless love
I am Yours.
