it’s hasn’t been long
since I saw You last
yet somehow
it feels
like forever
The road seems to
stretch
despite my
every step
as I wearily
attempt
to make it
back to You
The sunrise
clouded over,
no stars
nor sunset
to be seen
in the evening sky
yet a glimmer of hope
continues to spark,
this ember in my heart
which refuses to be
quenched
without words
deep calls to deep
as i long
for the One I love
longing to
see
sense
hear
touch
be with You
a smile
a loving word
a kindness shown
a welcoming purr
a thank you
a giggle
a hug
You
echoes of Your Presence
swirl all around me
drawing me
closer
to You
with each
skin on God
demonstration
of Your love
fresh wind
blows again
across my soul
peace deepens
& settles back in
as hope re-anchors
itself on You
the one I long for
You lighten
my load
every time I
leave it
in Your capable hands
which only
begs the question,
“Why
did I drag this
for so long?”
Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; therefore He will rise up to show you compassion.
Isaiah 30:18a NIV
