My Spiritual Knees

My Spiritual Knees

 

Lord, I come to You

With a heavy heart.

Fighting the fight in all I do,

You never leave me in the dark.

 

You deserve all the praise

And all the glory.

Please accept my worship when I pray

From my spiritual knees.

 

I lay my heart, my life, in Your hands,

Knowing that whatever I go through

Is making me strong enough to withstand.

Ever reminded of Your truth.

 

The faster the water flows,

The stronger it believes.

Yet, the more I’m stilled, the more I grow,

On my spiritual knees.

 

With a heart bowed,

I long to be in Your Presence.

To share with You somehow,

My awe of Your essence.

 

Though I don’t feel strong,

And my physical knees are weak,

I know I forever belong

On my spiritual knees.

This was so moving and so beautiful. The power, strengtj and love of every line really shines through. There are many things we take for granted that others would be so overjoyed with. Thank you for sharing your words.

Not being able to kneel at the alter anymore saddens me also. Having disabilities can bring us much closer to our Lord. Valentine

This is beautiful. I love the way you use your poetry to share God with the world. Your faith is strong, and I don't think he really cares if we are sitting or standing or kneeling. He's looking at our hearts. jan
