I read this as part of a youth service sometime towards the end of December 2009 and just thought I’d share it with the world.

He sits… He watches

Over His

Over His … Lady ‘Lost, Backslidden’

Over His … Dame ‘I can’t be bothered’ Agnostic

Over His … Sir blind ‘you’re not there’ Atheist

Over Mr Talk to my back ‘you weren’t there’

Why?

**********

You watched

While my eyes got swollen with weeping (Job 17: 7)

Watched While I Waded Waist deep in Rivers of Sorrow

Stripped almost naked of what you supposedly clothed me with

An only companion in ‘Lonely’ you left

But when angry ramblings just about cross the border to blasphemy territory

Your own ears will hear him       (Isaiah 30:21)

**********

Saying

Welcome to Adversity University

Our Expertise includes:

Botany, especially pruning      (John 15:2)

Chemistry, especially the ‘Thermal purification of precious metals’

Till the potter looks at the vessel

And it bears the likeness of the man from heaven (1 Cor 15:49)

*********

We Ask for

Hearts Forever Seeking, Forever Trusting

Feet forever swift on the journey

Even with that blindfold illusion

That makes a weary heart cry out ‘Let me in on your plans Lord’

Let this bitter cup pass and rescue my enemy ravaged life (Lamentations 15:3 & Psalm 35: 17

But he chooses to conform and not comfort

********

To equip

For the Great mission, reach out, Bring back:

Lady Backslidden and Dame Agnostic and Sir Atheist

Back to:

These Forever Open Arms

This Love that forever endures

Look No Strings! Unconditional
