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
