Him

Your love is an ocean

Swallowing me whole

I take in a deep breath

Inhaling your infinite grace

You've healed my broken soul

Mended my torn seams

Made me whole again

In you

 

I was dirty

But you cleansed me

Your price was high

Your pain was great

But you paid for me eagerly

gladly

for me

You did it for me.

 

You are a loving father

A tender mother

An ever-faithful lover

My eternally dependable friend

Best friend.

 

How is it

You can love someone

Like me

The way you do?

But you do

And You amaze me

My God, You amaze me.

 

Your scars are beautiful to me

Marks of everlasting Love

I crave Your sweet embrace

The warmth of Your arms

Wrapped around me like a protective fortress

I am safe in Your hands

 

With You

I walk and never tire

With You

My stride shall never falter

You have never

Will never

Let go of my hand

 

My gracious companion

I cannot even imagine

the love that You have

For me

For the world

For every single child of the Earth

For You do not love

But You are love.

 

When I smile...

So do You.

When I laugh...

I hear Yours in my ear

And when I cry...

You are beside me

Kissing away the tears

 

You have never

Will never

Do anything to hurt me

So I put my life in Your hands

Oh worthy Love of mine

 

For whom shall I fear when You are my protector?

From who shall I hide, when you hold my hand?

They may steal my body

But it doesn't matter

My life

My soul

Is with you.

 

And though sometimes

I may feel abandoned

Forgotten

Alone

I know it not so

Because You, my God

Are always

By my side

Offering comfort to my weeping heart

Healing to my torn and beaten soul

 

You

Are the best thing that

ever

happened to me,

for by your stripes I was healed

By your blood...

I am free.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

He's always there. And though sometimes we may doubt, or some of us not even believe, He is -always- there to pick us up when we fall, for we are His children and His love NEVER fails.

But Zion said, "The LORD has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me." "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me."
Isaiah 49:14-16

This is simply outstanding. I can't even put it into words at the majesty you described in these words. If I was ever to pick a piece of writing to describe the great love and beauty of His holiness, I would pick this one. I am almost speechless and I can't describe the feeling of pride that I felt for my Father. This is going into my favorites. This was purely amazing. Magnificent work.

He lives! Great poem of his love.

[LamentedHaven]

Truly inspiring and heartfelt even to the most unbelieving. There is no argument to the beauty this presents and the truth that is embedded in the spirit of all humanity. Hopefully this strikes fire in the hearts of them

[Livana Lowell]

All I can say is beautiful. I think I will keep that scripture. You have blessed me with your words and the infinite love and grace is evident to me, in me. Lifting your hands and being swept away by the Lord, wrapped in his love for us. Really, I absolutely adore this message. And, no matter what we've done or what we believe, or how far away from Him we are, He still loves us and protects us.

He is everything and all I've ever needed. When I had no father, he was mine.

Even as we feel like we are dots on a blank sheet of paper, He loves each and everyone of us and its so beautiful much like this poem. Im going to keep this poem too just in case Im feeling a little down =)

Wonderful job!

God Bless

This is really beautiful and VERY TRUE. I read this and was moved into silence. One of the coolest things about God is that He's always constant--he never changes. In a world where nothing is constant and dependable--He is!! It's gorgeous, isn't it! :)

[Crowley]

Filled, protected and full of wonder. What more could a person ask for really. A real testament to faith and the joy that it can bring into someones heart given the right frame of mind. Very good....loved it.

I am speechless ....AMAZING!

[Calypso]

AMAZING! I wanted to cry when I read this. God is amazing and I'm glad there are other who love him as much as he deserves.

[Jim Parson]

I am speechless. This is the most incredibly beautiful testament that I have ever read. It is simply brilliant. There is nothing else I can say about it.

[Marie Harrison]

This is very beautiful. You're so right, he is the rock we can always depend on. The eternal source of love and healing.
