Wait for God
to respond.
He hears.
He turns toward His crying child.
He reaches down into your clay crib
and brings you up, high,
high,
into His bosom.
He sets you on His shoulder.
He jostles you on His knee.
And when you're comforted and quiet,
He holds you closely
and teaches you to speak,
to pray.

We can claim and pray in agreement with the promises God gives in His Word.

Love pours
from the veins,
rushes through
blood cells
parting a red sea.
Your infusing love
transfuses me,
induces me
to come home:
In God’s heart are
many chambers.

Lord, I am the hunger,
You the food.
I am the ache
who seeks Your comfort.
I am the lost,
and You the finding –
The Way, The Life,
The Truth.
