Take me home
Oh God, these tears are falling yet again
How can I ask for what I don’t know?
Oh Almighty, how can I approach you with these thoughts of sin?
Would that your holy fire would consume me
what blessing that would be
To carry me from this world of darkness
Slow my heart
Still my breath
Take me home
But how my unworthiness blocks that path
God grant your lowly servant peace.
How can I ask for what I don’t know?

To carry me from this world of darkness
Slow my heart
Still my breath
Take me home

God grant your lowly servant peace.

In the same way, the Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit itself intercedes with inexpressible groanings.
And the one who searches hearts knows what is the intention of the Spirit, because it intercedes for the holy ones according to God's will.
We know that all things work for good for those who love God, 6 who are called according to his purpose.
~Romans 8: 26-28
(((Joanne))) and (((Dymphna)))- thankyou. Dymphna, I'm going to mark those verses!
lol, actually just realising, I think the WHOLE of Romans 8 is marked....!
Romans 8:28 is my dh's favorite verse. I thought of the verses I posted as soon as I read your poem.
Oooo nice! How have you been?! I fell off of blogging for a while there. Did you get the post card I sent a while back? I hope it made it!! GOD BLESS!!!
Hi Michelle Therese! good to see you! I've been trying to keep up with your blog, but things are pretty flat out here!
I did get your postcard thankyou, I thought I had emailed you, but must have imagined it, sorry! (happens a lot!)
I've been looking for one of the hills near my house to send you, but haven't found one nice enough yet...
God Bless xoxo
You have the heart of a poet hon:).
I do hope oneday your poems will be published...To waste a Gift is a great crime for the imagination.
...To think is one thing to imagine is everything. (Einstein-I think)
