At His Feet

Published by yolie under Christian Living, Poetry Edit This

I just want to sit at his feet
Lay my head on his lap
And let him wipe my tears away
Tell Him about all my troubles
Lay my pain in His hands
This month has been hard Lord
Love ones have gone to meet you
And when happiness tries to shine through
the clouds of my sorrow
Shadowed with disappointment and despair appear side by side

I just need to sit at His feet
Clear my mine
Worship in His presence
And pray
Pray without ceasing
Taking no thought for the cares that tempt and tease
The cares that try to lead me astray
He’s my only comfort
Joy
Hope
Strong tower
Present help
Devil devour

I think I’ll just stay here
At His feet
With both arms wrapped tightly around Him
Basking in His Presence, Glory and Power
The cares of this world don’t faze me
Pain and sorrow subsides here
Here at my Fathers feet.

Thirst (pg 2)

Then the woman left her water jar and went away to the town. And she began telling the people. John 4:28

He knows everything I ever did……

The things I never told anyone
The things I’m most ashamed of
The things I thought were well hidden
Everything,
He knows it all
My desires, my hopes, dreams, and heart
And still He offers me keys
Keys to life
Keys to Love
Keys to the Kingdom
Who but God could take my faults and weaknesses and use it for His glory?
Who but God could use my most embarrassing and painful moments as an
Opportunity to witness to someone else

Come, see a Man Who has told me everything that I ever did! Can this be [is not this] the Christ…John 4:29

Thirst (pg 1)

…All who drink of this water will be thirsty again.
(John 4:13)

For you met me at the well ‘Give me a drink’ you said.
No bucket, no jug, not even your hands in position to catch a drink if poured.
How peculiar
How strange
You ask for a drink from me?
A Samaritan
A sinner
A woman
Then you say this water will cause me to thirst again..
Yet the water you can provide would cure my thirst until eternity?
Go get your husband you say
Husband I have not one, two, three….I will not say
But you know whether or not it’s the truth or a lie I speak?
You whom I’ve just met
A prophet you must be
For you say God is a spirit
who must be worship in spirit and in truth
How do you know these things?
No the Messiah is who you must be
For you say to me

…I who now speak with you am He. (John 4:26)

Read: John 4:4-26

In Memory Of Fountain Murray

Published by yolie under Poetry, Trusting God, prayer Edit This

If I knew what to say to comfort you on this day, I would have called you a thousand times.
I would have emailed you over and over again
I would shared in your laughter along with your sorrow.
I would have said ‘I miss him too,’ and though it’s snowing outside
I would have ask you if you wanted to go fishing.

Prayer:
On this day father one year after the death of my uncle I ask that you wrap your loving arms around all who continue to morn. Lord I ask that you lead us from one degree of grace and faith to another. Father I ask that you be our comforter in hours of sorrow and strengthen in moments of weakness. Fill us with you allowing our memories of him to be cycles of pleasure that erase the pain. Lord I ask you to strengthen his children and touch them in a mighty way. Only you know what is on their heart and what they need. Lord what ever their needs are you are well able to provide and it is my prayer that you will. Father you said when we call on you you would hear us and you would answer. lord I ask that you touch us as only you can. In Jesus name Amen.
