| A Step Back in Selflessness | ||||||||
| By: Sarah Faithy early 2006 | ||||||||
| Note: this poem means alot to me because of the fact that I was going through a rough time, when I wrote it. What was crazy about it was, God spoke to me THROUGH to me while I wrote it...and I grew. I really grew that day. | ||||||||
| Pain is not the phrase to feel exactly how I do Ache comes close, but even so its meaning is but crude. Break - is what I did when I cried and realized that loving you meant backing off and letting God decide. Tears that fell like healing rain were all but bottled in, I laughed! - I tried, but wept inside and Jesus flooded in. "Patience is your grace today, for you to bear with Joy. For when this time is over, your heart, My Will employ. It will not last as long, you fear He is only but a guy. I need to work in him, as you! My plan's to beautify." No, pain is not the phrase to feel exaclty where I am Faith is how I'll make it through all aches of stepping back. And love in hand with faith, must all love-suffering show that to be selfless in my state, I first must let you go. |
