I set you like a seal
Under, over, before and above
Everything I think, speak, feel and
Do believe there has never been one
Before, during or after
Who loves the way you do
I will sit in the protection of the shadow at your feet
Your hand over my head
Enfolding myself in the warmth of your enduring tenderness
I am consecrated to you
Even when I seek but cannot find
You’re there
Hiding in the mountains, breathing across the sky, singing under water, whispering behind the mad whir of a mad world
Your gentleness restores my senses back to truth
The calm that washes over and softens every rough edge
A nourishing balm to salty wounds
That when I remove the armor of the day
Immerse myself in you
An orchard of sweetness
An ocean of satisfaction
An atmosphere of awe
I stumble humbly towards you
Again and again and again
To remember what it means
To belong~
“Peace and strength grow in my awareness as I open myself to love’s expression”-Daily Word
This post was the best ever! I’m going to save it for whenever I’m feeling distant from Jesus and can’t connect. Thank you!

Thank you Meg. ❤️
I would like and approve your message but you included your email and phone number and I wasn’t sure if you wanted that to be public. Hope you’re well.

That ought to be included in a book of modern psalms.
If you can get them – you might like Australian cartoonist Michael Leunig’s two little illustrated books of prayer. Quirky and wise, has a tendency to upset fundamentalists, and would be right down your street. 😉

You’ve shared his work with me in the past. I’ll have to revisit it. Cheers!
