Jesus was waiting for me at the altar!...
Be not dismayed!...
Devil!... you won’t get me like that!...
Never let the devil see you cry!... there’s a place that you can go!... I know the Shadow of our God Almighty!... will cover you and make it alright!... Yes!... under His shadow you can hide!... take your cares with you there!... for that’s where all things will be alright!... my Gracious God!... my Ruler and my King!... I was haunted by the horrors of my midnight!... the scars from my yesterday!... and U cared for them all!... U took me under yur fole!... held me close and kept the fears away!... when the storm came!... U covered me from that too!... I had some burdens too heavy for me to carry!... U took the load and told me not to worry!... speaking of that!... all I could see out my window!... were new mercies and yur overflowing grace!... And!... U placed ease at my feet!... I stretched my arms to receive my Spiritual Romance!... so I renewed my vows!... and that’s when my tears started!... Jesus was waiting for me at the altar!... He’s a God of Kindness!... Mercy and Grace!... He covers me!... Lord God!... let this day be the day!... that I do what honors U the most!... in my darkness Lord God!... U be the light!... Lord God!... I know I don’t have to hurry!... U don’t wear a watch!... I still have time!... for my heavy heart at the start of my day!... in the sun or rain Lord God!... U still shine!... when I cry!... dry my eyes and be my delight throughout my new day!... keep me warm when I’m cold from the outside!... Lord God!... when I’m in doubt!... let me realize and look for U when I’m in my darkness!... for I know U’re there!... for U’re good when life gets hard and falls apart!... my tears may water my eyes!... Lord God!... U dry them too!... Lord God!... I shoot for the stars just to be where U are!... no matter what it cost!... Lord God!... I would rather lose it all!... for yur mercy endureth forever!... and forever and ever!... Lord God!... my Holy King!... my life hit me!... knocked me down!... cleaned off my feet!... I was dizzy for a minute!... I didn’t see that coming!... he set me down in my misery!... I got Juke!... he kept me busy!... I just threw my arms and raised them high!... devil tried to soothe me!... I screamed out loud!... shook my head!... devil you won’t get me like that!... I won’t fall for that!... he even tried to send me pain to join my misery and turned my head around!... I dodged the arrows!... I pulled out some Isaiah 41 at 10!... It told me!... fear not for I am with you!... be not dismayed!... for I am thy God!... I will strengthen thee!... I will help thee!... yes!... I will uphold thee with the right hand of righteousness!... Now!... He gave me the strength to conquer pharaohs!... I can roam like I’m the lion’s den!... for I’m not alone!... He’s always by my side!... And!... this was my cry out loud!... U my Lord!... my Redeemer!... U’re my Shepherd and King!... wheew!...
Lord God!... my challenges at times are overbearing!... my tasks are heavy!... U are Lord and my King!... it’s through my rain!... my reckoning!... and knowing U Christ my Savior!... U’re at the table!... by the Grace of my God!... and by Yur love!... U’re Lord and my everything!... I thank U for what U are doing in my life!... and about to do!... like Paul said!... when I’m weak!... U my God!... U’re strong!... I ask that U give me strength to carry on!... and forevermore!... until we can gather again!... I trust that U will go before us and take us to the next level!... in the Most Powerful!... Matchless name of Christ Jesus!... for this I pray!...
Forever and ever Amen
