untitled

searching but not finding
seeking but not knowing
did my feelings deceive me?

how I long for a word, a whisper, a touch...
to dip even a toe in the Spirit's burning fire
I want to be ignited, emblazoned, impassioned

not to linger here in the desert, waiting for the fulfillment of a promise

a spirit of complacency to be shaken
one of rebellion to be left behind
grumbling no more

but dancing into the glory of a child fully alive

wholly trusting
always hoping
grateful again

to feel in my fingers, my heart, my core

the warmth of your presence
the love of your Son
life renewed

Joshua 21:45
Not one word failed from all the good words God spoke to the house of Israel. Everything came out right.
