He Waits

The night begins,

And your heart tries to find ways it can hide. 

Terror fills you,

And you want to know the peace...

The peace that surpasses the understanding of your mind,

But you every time you try,

You let the hand of fear,

Pull you back

From resting in

His love.

Months go by,

Then,

It's years.

 You are being told that you are doing better,

That God has got you,

That you are loved,

That you're gonna be okay.


But are you

Really?

Pictures,

Words,

Thoughts,

Fears,

Endless what ifs,

Try to turn you into something

You are not.

You begin to loose sight of yourself,

And you forget who you are

In the depths of your soul.

 You are drowning,

In your sea of guilt,

And fear,

And anxiety,

And confusion.

Does not the One Who claims He loves you so much,

Care that you are suffering so?


Ahh,

But in a gentle way,

That gentle way of His,

He reminds you,

That He cares,

That He loves,

That He longs for your heart,

By coming near,

And startling your weary self,

With a warm touch

Of His Hand.

The cold numbness you have felt for so long,

Begins to melt

Like the melting of darkness

With the rising sun.


And suddenly,

In one instant,

He calms

Every single wave,

With His enrapturing

Love.




Do you want that...

For you?

He waits.
