Create in Me A Clean Heart, O God

By 6 Comments

Create in me a clean heart, O God.

Create
cause to come into being.
something new 
brand new

In 
surrounded by
contained

Me
personal
single unit
yet… many Me’s in the world

A
singular
just one

Clean
not dirty
spotless
washed
no mess

Heart
beats on it’s own, automatic
part of a system
central to our being
No heart, no life

O
Exclamation of
surprise, greatness, wonder

God
Sustainer
Creator
Lover of my Soul
Seeking my best
For his own glory
Using my weakness, 
To show who he is

Tell, a poem of relationships

By 2 Comments

 Tell… oh my… I see this word,and you know what I want to belt out?

GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN over the hills and every where!   BUT the question is this…
Should I belt it out right now when Hubby and I are busy chatting?   
I THINK NOT.

Wouldn’t be polite you know.  Nor kind, nor showing empathy, nor upbuilding of relationship betwixt the two of us. 

Ergo, thinking of the word tell now that we are finished chatting, has me thinking what does it speak to us about marriage or even just relationships?


Tell

Talk
Words between each other.
Words that seek to understand.
Words that seek to inform.
Words that speak to heart matters. 

Each
Each person matters.
Each person has a say.
Each person is important.
Each needs to put the other first.
Each needs to love the other as they would love themselves.
Each needs to be prepared to give way.

Life
Speak life to each other.
Spread the joy of life.
Laugh and talk and be at peace.
Working to build the life within. 

Love
Is the building block
The centre.
The action that informs
of the feeling of love being built
Day by day. 
The love that starts from the the love
that God holds for us.

Hymn Study: Come, Now is the Time to Worship

By 8 Comments

Worship is the first word of the October write 31 days challenge.  I had a hoot last year doing this so I thought I’d try it again this year.  I might try to do all hymns…but doubt that will work.  🙂  But this first word had this song immediately running through my head, so I figured I’d share it with you.  🙂



Come, Now Is The Time To Worship”

Come, now is the time to worship.
Come, now is the time to give your heart.
Come, just as you are, to worship.
Come, just as you are, before your God.
Come.

One day every tongue will confess
You are God.
One day every knee will bow.
Still the greatest treasure remains for those
Who gladly choose you now.

Come, now is the time to worship.
Come, now is the time to give your heart.
Oh, come. Just as you are to worship.
Come just as you are before your God.
Come.

One day every tongue will confess
You are God.
One day every knee will bow.
Still the greatest treasure remains for those
who gladly choose you now.

[Repeat]

Come, now is the time to worship.
Come, now is the time to give your heart.
Come, just as you are to worship.
Come, just as you are before your God.
Come.

Oh, come. Oh, come. Oh, come.
Worship the Lord. Oh, come.

Come, come, come…
