Realizing Your Love

December 21, 2009 by Laura Blodgett 2 Comments

You brought me to this certainty,
As You knew you would.
Your love gives me security.
You work things for my good.
Your love for me is singular,
Your parable explains,
Your love for each:  peculiar,
Though ninety-nine remain.
The vastness of capacity!
The fatherly desire
For every soul to be set free,
Escaping judgment’s fire.
Your love has made me fervent
For Your presence and Your Word.
I will never be content
Unless I practice what I learn
I beg for Your encouragement,
But wary lest I stray
To seek any vacant event.
Let not emotion cause me sway.
Comfort comes as I release
The trifles that distract
From communion that does please,
And joy results from that.
In love You ask that I rely
Upon Your daily care.
Frail and finite I reply,
Lead me anywhere.
Is there anything about my life
That hinders others’ hearts
From being drawn in belief?
Purge my selfish parts.
Use me as a catalyst,
Spark an ardent flame.
Show me any truth I’ve missed.
Devotion is my aim.
You love enough to guarantee
A place You will prepare
For us in Your eternity
Without an earthly care.
Eager for this one reward:
To see you face to face,
While having this to look toward
I will enjoy this place.
For this is where you have set
Each person, hopefully.
I did repent, You paid my debt.
Magnificence loves me.
