My Soul's Desire

I Am Striving

To Receive The Commendation

From

The Saints' Commander In Chief!

AND

I Desire

With My Whole Heart

To Meet The One Who Died

So That My Soul

Could Have Eternal Peace And Relief!

I Think Often

About The Lord Christ

AND

Today

My Thoughts Took To Walking A Different Way

AND

I Wondered ...

What Is There In Mankind

That Made The Godhead Decide

Before Man Even Had A Mind

That Jesus Christ Would Die

In Their Stead

AND

Before They Had Even Sinned

To Return Them

To The Bosom Of The Divine King?!

This Is Lofty Thinking

 Outside Of My Realm

Outside Of My Pay Grade

Outside Of My Operating Brief

Outside Of My Understanding

But

Totally Inside Of Jesus' Faith

Of Which

In This Hour

I Have A Measured Piece!

The Answer Is God's To Give In His Time

AND

 If ... He So Chooses!

I Am Made

In God's Likeness

In God's Image

AND

Within Me

Is God's Breath Of Life

AND

If That Does Not

Make Me Special

Then

I Don't Understand Anything

About Christ's Devoted-To-Me Dying Love!

I Say My Prayers!

God Hears Them!

I Tell Of Worries And Woes!

I Tell Of Fears

Frets

AND

Family

AND

I Even Complain Of

Un-opening

Non-Locking Doors!

I Tell Of My Hope For Salvation!

I Give Utterance To Pleasures Of Delight

That Are Wrought

At The Hand Of My Master

AND

Given To Me

Before

For It

I Had Even Given A Faint Thought Sunlight!

I Love The God-Man Jesus!

I Believe

That Christ The Lord

Is My Shepherd Divine!

AND

Through The Struggle

I Am Striving To Walk In His Way!

AND

I Humbly Recognize

That Mere Man Am I

AND

Plead

For Godly Illumination

To Shine In

From

My Dim Clouded Eyes!

I Cannot Wake Myself

Come The Morning!

I Can't Shield Myself

From Things That Terrorize The Night!

I Can't Get Victory Over Sin

WITHOUT

King Jesus

AND

I Can't Utter A Single Earnest Faithful Prayer

WITHOUT

The Holy Spirit Leading The Way To The Light!

I Know

AND

I Accept That

There Is Nothing That I Can Do

That I Can Do Without My Lord

Save

Refuse Sure Salvation

To Run Wild

With The Wily Wicked Fraud

AND

I Am Grateful To God

That Full Disclosure Is Mine

AND

No One Can Make The Decision For Me

To Worship The Great God

AND

To Do It Gladly

Answering The Sounding Salvation Call!

I Desire To See

The Lover Of My Soul

In All His Majesty

AND

As My King

AND

To Worship Before Him

AND

Handle Him

AND

To Have That Face-To-Face

Personal Interview With Him!

That ... Is My Soul's Goal!
