Eternal Promise

Night has passed over

Embrace your strength and refuge

Peace and rest for weary souls.

Eternal promise

Your comfort now fills my heart

Allow your spirit’s leading.

(Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God – Deuteronomy 7:9).

The balm of encouragement

Filled with compassion

The balm of encouragement

Within the eternal agenda.

In your still small voice

Quiet words in the time of need

Allows my heart to remain soft.

(but exhort one another daily – Hebrews 3:13)

Possession - Sedoka

In a net of stars

A place of light and darkness

Rest in a moment of prayer

The struggle for peace

Felt inside with each heart beat

Life at last released in love.

(It shall be, in regard to their inheritance, that I am their inheritance. You shall give them no possession in Israel, for I am their possession. – Ezekiel 44:28)

Complete Union - Sedoka

Every vein in me

Affirms with recognition

Recreate you deep inside

This worn crinkled mask

Curtains of pleasure and pain

Life in complete union

(As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him – Colossians 2:6)

Every Morning - Sedoka

Sweet soft intrusions

Lengthening shadows in light

As rains scarf burdens the air

I lie listening

Awake as faint tears drizzle

Alive to the wings of dawn.

(Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not.

They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. – Lamentations 3:22-23)
