My heart…
It beats. With blood it pumps, emotions come & go.
Ups & downs, hot & cold.
Sometimes it makes sense, sometimes no.
Unlike this ebb & flow, You do not go.
You’re above the change; Strength that stops the waves.
Above the pains, Above the Praise You stay.
I do not, I will not be carried & tossed;
Chasing the coattails of all circumstances that come my way.
I dance through.
I will remain, with You, in You.
Unchanged, Steady
You Are.
You lift me, place me on You, Solid Rock.
My heart…
It beats. Apathy lures me–
give up, give in, defeat within.
No hope or reason – just breath.
Your hand, heavy on me.
Your hand, demanding the ebb & flow’s response.
You are Calmer of the storm. Gravity of all emotions.
I am beckoned back to Light; blood governed by the Truth.
In all things, You remain.
Steady as I go, not shaken by the ebb & flow.
