Issues of the heart


Acts 2:17 New English Translation (NET Bible)

17 ‘And in the last days it will be,’ God says,
‘that I will pour out my Spirit on all people,
and your sons and your daughters will prophesy,
and your young men will see visions,
and your old men will dream dreams.

 

Heart issues

 

Dreaming of days gone by and see where destiny brought me

Wondering or life as such was preplanned this way

Should one even try to open the eyes and truly see?

If it does not matter much as we just go on in faith

 

Ears that hear selectively of what one needs to know

Eyes that only perceive some truth when closed in meditation

The Spirit that protectively will the direction show

Where the faithful travel through in the Way of Salvation

 

Darkened seems the world around to the deep enlightened heart

Hope is always present for others to embrace

The hunger for solid ground and the strength for a new start

That only Christ can grant when you touch His Grace
