Questions

What do I do to pass the time?
Do I desire to go deeper
to have the fire in Your eyes?
What is it that I seek?
the flame, the fire,
or how to survive the week?
Your heart, Your Kingdom
the life that You give
Or right here, right now,
the life that I seem to live?
Are my purposes temporary,
eternal, or blind?
Is the Word just a crutch
or is it my guiding Light?
Do I really trust
or do I fear?
Have I experienced His love
or do I remain still,
stagnant, without growth?
Have I been radically changed
or is it a joke?
Then I remember those words
You spoke:
"If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation,"
and the words that stay so near,
when I hear You whisper, "Dear, seek first My Kingdom
and His righteousness and all these things will
be added to you.
No more fear
not an ounce
My love covers you and dispels the doubt."
Love permeating, deeper and deeper
I see Your face in greater detail:
I want to be next to You.
