Aware

2 Timothy 3:16-17 New King James Version (NKJV)16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. Awareness

 

What gives me awareness … that something may be wrong?

By what standard to measure … what rhythm leads my song?

 

What beat predicts my movement as in thought I travel on?

Who provides the background music? Who always comes along?

 

Who sets my eyes direction? Who made the path I walk?

Who keeps me from running? Who listens when I talk?

 

Who moves my hands in writing … as in heart, I search and plot?

His patience is unsearchable … His love inspired by God.

 

Alone-ness is a blessing … when I know He is near

for even in deepest lonely-ness … He shows me I’m here.

 

He shows me the treasure of nothingness and the blessing of empty inside.

The places only He can fill … with the riches of only right.
