Ah,Yes ~

I lay my burdens,
at the door
open wide
and step inside
soon I begin to sense . . .

Peace
Tranquility
an unrelenting
Serenity
ah, yes . . .
there is also
Joy.

As I move about each room,
I roam all around
within the walls I find . . .

Faith
Trust
an everlasting
Hope
ah, yes . . .
there is also
Love.

I climb the stairs,
step by step
to the landings end
and there atop
I come upon . . .

Comfort,
Rest
a reassuring
Calm
ah, yes . . .
there is
my Lord!

Revelation 3:20
King James Version

“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock:
if any man hear my voice, and open the door,
I will come in to him, and will sup with him,
and he with me.”

I am Fully Persuaded ~

There is nothing,
that stands in my way
there is no one person
that’ll cause me to sway.

For, I’ve been won over,
I am certain and I’m sure
that for my sinful condition
there’s only one cure.

Jesus is the remedy,
for all of my afflictions
nothing can move me
from my convictions.

Not the trials in this life,
nor the test I go through
will cause God’s love for me
to ever go askew.

In good times or in bad,
in times of war or of peace
today or in the future
my assurance will not cease.

Not the storms out at sea,
nor the ones on the shore
could carry or take me away
from the One I adore.

If my world fell apart,
under a massive earth quake
my love for the Lord
it would not, could not shake.

Nothing can separate me,
I cannot be dissuaded . . .
to the love God has for me
I remain fully persuaded!

Romans 8:38-39
King James Version

“For I am persuaded,
that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities,
nor powers, nor things present,
nor things to come, Nor height,
nor depth, nor any other creature,
shall be able to separate us
from the love of God,
which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord.”
