No Longer My Treasure

 Why have you departed from me? Why did you turn your heart to stone? Where did the love you once professed for me gone? I am so unhappy. I gave you everything I had. I released upon you, the essence of my being..... but you left me.

The crown has fallen from off your head. Part of your glory shall be scattered in the wind. You shall be a waste, in the sight of all that pass by. You shall loathe yourself, for all the tears you made to fall, because of your hardened heart.

An end shall come upon you from the four corners of who you are, because of your departure from me. I watch for you, but you have made your bed upon thorns. You have lost your way to tenderness. You have departed from your first love and morning has come unto you. It has indeed, gone forth.

The rod has blossomed and pride has budded. The time for your mourning has come to a perpetual end. You lost your vision and seek not to attain to higher heights. You caused my heart to be broken in uncollectible pieces.

You are no longer my treasure. You are no longer my anchor. You are no longer my escape. You are no longer on the mountains, like doves of the valleys. 

When once, your hands were consumed with strength to embrace me.... today they have become feeble. Your knees are become weak, as water that is stagnant. Your silver and your gold are become as vapour that disappears when it rises. Your beauty as an ornament, is not to behold by me. For I am not to be called, your own. 

You are not the holder of the key to my heart anymore. My face has turned away from you. You cannot look upon me, in my secret place....where once you could.

Oh! That this might be a dream.

 Oh! That I might awake. 

Oh! That I might see you running and leaping for joy, as you usher in my forever love.

Remember

Image
 When you feel like giving up. When you feel like your back is against the wall. Don't loose your focus. Don't worry about what tomorrow brings. Someone is praying for you. Someone is interceding to God on your behalf. You are not standing alone. When you feel like all hope is gone. Your answer is just a prayer away. The times when you feel lost... Know that you are found. When darkness surrounds you... Remember you are the light of the world. If at times you feel like your taste for praise is disappearing.... Remember you are the salt of the earth. When battles come... Know that the Lord is fighting for you. You have already won. When you don't know where your next meal is coming from... Remember that there is a table prepared before you, even in the presence of your enemies. When you feel discouraged... Remember that the arms of the Lord is around you.  When your children are disobedient... Remember that the Lord will create in them a clean heart and renew a right spirit

Like A Babbling Fool

Image
I say I love you, but my words do not.. I shout with glee, like a shining pot. My eyes grow dim, to the sights I see.. For my actions speaks louder, than who I was born to be. Like a tinkling symbol, I make much noise.. To be seen and heard, so I can rejoice. From the rising of the sun, till it sets in the west.. I loose the chance, to win each test. Often I would say, I am a child of God.. Howbeit my senses, are ruled by discord. Like a slave in captivity, I am bound in chains.. For the pride in my heart, is a block to my stains. I am my own weapon, that is fighting against me.. Consumed and conformed, to the crushing to be free. I speak to the wind, like a babbling fool.. For the mote in my eye, is the devil's own tool. I lost my identity, in the pride of life.. Like a fox in the henhouse, I divorced my wife. I laughed at five loaves and two fishes, in the desert.. For a servant's heart, was distant at my birth. Where honour is given, I laugh it to scorn.. For the council I

Behold, Thou Art Fair

Image
 You will walk down the aisle, as a beautiful bride.. A sight to behold, into arms open wide. The tears you have cried, fell in pots of pure gold.. As the scent of perfume, changed your weary old soul. From before you were born, you were chosen by God.. To radiate the sun, as a treasure to afford. Your gown of snow white, with a veil of pure silk.. Will sanctify your splendor, like heaven's own milk. Behold, thou art fair, oh beloved of the Lord.. With myrrh on your fingers, you are shadowed by a sword. Rise up like roses, at the dawn of the day.. For the glory of your husband, will be your strength and your stay. Into the closet and behind closed doors.. Your honeymoon will eclipse, as your intertwining soars.. A fountain of gardens, watered and free.. Will be your sapphire, for your eyes to see. Look forth tomorrow, when you will both touch.. With feather-like droplets, where grace is so much. Beauty as a rainbow, you will set as a seal.. For the presence of your flaming, will ev
