The Wrong Recipe
You cannot give what you don’t have yourself;
Boring companions sit upon that shelf;
Boring frustration; Not a good mix;
I think, a recipe for making me sick!
I wondered why the utterances that rhyme;
Because, I don’t ‘own’ them most of the time;
And, yet, I know when He comes in the room,
He’s revealing His Heart,
that’s been birthed from Love’s Womb.
So, this isn’t coming out of my life;
But, rather, an interruption,
that Truth wants to say about His way;
To counter The Lie of corruption.
To interrupt time, with these many moments;
How far will this Love go?
I feel like it’s mine as He begins His rhyme
and I’m left in His afterglow!
I can see this could be very dangerous for me:
To allow any kind of deception;
This isn’t just false humility;
Believe me; I know who I am.
If it’s true, I can’t teach what I’m not one with;
Is this why, then, prophecy:
To bring into the Earth what I don’t yet own
but what I, in these ‘moments’ do see?
When I re-read what He’s rhymed to write,
I don’t want to leave that place;
Yet, I know it’s time to walk out what I’ve heard;
I truly thank God for His grace!
At those times, I think: Stand back!!! I can do this!!!
And then, when I start to walk,
opposition’s right there waiting for me,
as if We had never talked.
It’s important for me, based upon what He’s said,
to know that fact is faith
and will not be led into anything short
of every instruction I’ve read.
So, thou I’m not there yet, I intend to go on;
Not dance to the tune of the enemy’s song!
Would I not let you know the plan that I have?
That’s what He said to Abraham!!!
I see the importance of my persuasion;
That I, too, will understand:
The Day Abraham saw and rejoiced over that;
Is That Day that is close at hand.
All of these utterances have been leading to this;
His Time that is shortly approaching;
To think that He’d sit down and tell me these things;
Joy’s strength He is surely evoking!!!
This utterance was started a long time ago
and then, I laid it aside;
Some of these things, I just couldn’t hear;
Or, perhaps, I couldn’t abide.
When He speaks of the wonders He has in store;
I wonder what I have been waiting for.
Right now, I’m not sure of every step...
but, it could be, I haven’t heard it yet.
Of this one thing I am absolutely sure:
Anything less, I don’t want to endure;
So my expectation’s to be sure that I hear;
Because, as I do, there’ll be no thing to fear!!!
