The Path (Poem)

The Path

I'm longing for what could have been
desires flood my mind
I look to God and start to pray
in hopes I can unwind

A vision stirs inside my soul
as many paths revealed
I seek my purpose want your will
Lord show me what's concealed

A tranquil peace envelopes me
my heart begins to race
I sense your presence, feel your touch
Your breath's upon my face

I close my eyes and lift my hands
My knees go to the ground
I'm speechless now as time stands still
Your word's the only sound

I offer up my very life
in brokenness I plead
my Savior, God, my Lord my King
I'll go if you will lead

So lead me, guide me, show the way
Your servant I will be
I'll walk the path you've set for me
In love and honesty

I'll praise your name throughout the earth
I'll worship you my king
A sweet love song a melody
To You forever sing

Last night I sat here and felt the urge to write. It wasn't coming very easily but I felt it was Spirit led and inspired. My writings, my poetry are all intended to glorify my God and King. They are also intended to inspire, uplift and encourage. Outside of the few personal entries I make, I hope you find this to be true.

Often, I feel there is so much I want to say to my Heavenly Father but can't even begin to express what's on my heart. I can't lift my hands high enough, I can't sing loud enough, I feel trapped while my Spirit burns within me for so much more. A flame, a burning desire for my God, my savior.

Oh Holy Spirit, lead me. I want to be lost in your love oh God; to be consumed by your presence; to be transformed by your Word. You amaze me and I stand in awe struck wonder of you. I offer my life and everything I am or will be to You. It is yours my God, it is yours. Bless me as I walk the path you've set before me. Give me strength and direction. Let not my foot slip upon the rocks nor my mind succumb to the pressures against me. You, my God and King, are victorious. You are the one true living God and I worship you. You are holy my God, you are holy. Touch the lives of every single person I come in contact with Lord. I want to be used by You. I am your vessel, your servant and I give myself to you. I want my life to make a difference, one that matters. Bless my friends and acquaintances. Lord I lift up the ones that are hurting and ask a special blessing on their lives. You have a plan and purpose for all of us. If we seek it, we will find it. Thank you God for my life, thank you for loving me. I praise you! In my hurt I praise you! I know it is all in Your hands and wherever you lead me, I will follow. In Jesus name I pray these things. ~Amen
