Charis basileuon da dilkaiosunes - Grace reign through righteousness

I am walking by a river
slowly,
and thinking about you
and me
I am looking back on life
my past
Wondering where i have come from
and going
I look for a sign to see
you there
But i see the ripples in the water
i stare.
Wondering what more i can do
for you
I feel like crying it's
not enough
I pick up a rock
and toss it
into the river
feeling hopeless
I watch as it skips along
then drops
I cover my face I am ashamed
I feel your presence
your grace
as you lift my head
up
You wipe away my tears
replace my fears
with a love that is so .. so
tangible
I feel your embrace
as i stand
You have filled me up
with love
and show me how gracious
you are
Never intrusive
only loving
You came to my side
very much alive
and kissed all my tears
away
I feel the love you have
for me
and wonder what am i
to be
And then it hits me
free to be
A love i have been looking for
is here
standing in front of me
Jesus
you are my one
and only
What else can i do
what else can i be
standing with you
my father
and me
I don't know what
is in store for me
and i shouldn't wonder
for you are my husband
my daddy
my father
you have plans
for me
to give me
a future and a hope
and i need to just
allow
you to work
in me.
My God and father
I love you
for loving me
creating me to be
an added jewel in your crown
i am tremedously
amazed
at your majesty
Who knew a walk
by a river
can be so amazing
and wonderful
Thank You Jesus
for everything.

Wow, Thank you Sheila for your kind words! I am thankful it blessed you.

This is most assuredly a walk by the river that changes one forever! Your faith shines through and you share a wonderful testimony that our blessed Lord is our ALL! We need not feel abandoned when we have not all that we think we should have. His mercy and love is sufficient, His grace is sufficient, His peace surpasses all understanding, He is King of Kings!
Thank you for such beautiful words of love and comfort!!

Thank you for the beautiful poem. A wise person can see the blessings of life in a new day. I like how you took me with you on the walk with Jesus and the gifts of nature. A excellent poem.
