My Soul's Cry
My soul is grieved within me.Sorrow has covered me like a shroud.Oh how I long for the light of Your joy to renew me.To fill mylife with light once again.And yet I wander about in a fog.A darkness that seems to hide the light of Your presence.I long to be free of those chains that seem to bind me to my sorrow.To soar once again like the eagle.To ride on the wind of Your Holy Spirit.To look down upon the mountaintops from where Your Spirit has carried me.To see things from Your perspective.To truly know that all will be well and to know You as You know me.This is the cry of my heart today Father God.
As I finished what I thought was going to be a poem I realized it really was more of a prayer to my Heavenly Father.It was the cry of my heart on Sunday and it is still the cry of my heart today to see things from Heaven's perspective.To know my Father as He knows me.To soar above the sadness that poured from my heart as I originally wrote this prayer.I pray that you will take comfort from this and make this prayer your own.Insert your own name where appropriate.Personalize it.Make it your own.Make it your own heart and soul's cry.
Blessings,Sharon

Hi Sharon,
Thank you for sharing. Sometimes it is hard to write what is on our heart but when we do, it touches the lives of others, even those who do not leave comments.
This touches me deeply and I like you, want to see things from His perspective, to soar with the wings of an eagle.
I know that in the last three years, the Lord has broken shackle, after shackle off me, even when I couldn't see with the natural eye.
Is it not awesome that He knows our hearts, better than we do, and He hears the cries and He takes note, each tear is precious too Him.
Indeed it is my heart and souls cry too!
Blessings my friend,

Brother Paul!
What a blessing to have you blog by brother!I struggled for a couple of days as to whether or not I should post this"poem prayer."I finally felt I just had to do it.Nothing like opening a vein and bleeding on"paper"for all the world to see,eh?You are so correct brother.When we share transparently we may never know what lives are being touched.Iam truly glad to know this has touched you deeply brother.Like you,the last 3-4 years of our lives have been hellatious at best.In the refiners fire for sure.Sometimes His perspective becomes obscured by circumstances.Praise God for the removal of shackles that come through being in His purifying fire!Abundant blessings to you my brother friend.
