God Abiding in Our Souls
God forever promises. . .
letting new light shine upon us.
As we wander in the desert of our lives,
we lose the feel of God when we confront
our daily sadness, anger, anxiety, or even joy!
We repress the suffering over the world!
Personal invitations stretch my concern
for God’s all-inclusive Love!
Through deep meditation with God
And dwelling within me as He does with all,
I recover from my selfish covetousness,
remembering that being on speaking terms
with God is bragging, listening is learning!
I believe He rewards all His children
with eternity in His Kingdom of Heaven!
