One night as I lay sleeping,
My Saviour spoke to me.
If in startle I had not awakened,
I would have sworn it was a dream.

"Yes my Lord" I whispered.
As my heart in awe did beat.
And again with gentle voice,
My Lord began to speak.

He said...

"I long to spend some time with you,
But so busy you seem to be.
I watch you as you rush around,
And occasionally think of me.
I see you in your struggles,
I stare straight at your pain,
I beg for your attention,
My efforts seem in vain.
I yearn to have you at my feet,
And share with me awhile.
I wish you really knew my love for you,
My precious little child.
So when you get a moment,
Just simply speak my name,
I'm as close as just a whisper,
My time is yours to claim".

With that He did not speak again,
And I began to weep.
My loving Lord and Saviour,
Had spent some time with me.

Oh Juls this is just breathtaking. A simply beautiful message in this beautiful piece.   Something that we all need to take the time to remember, we need only call out His name.  Bonnie

this is so wonderful! It is so true that He is only a whisper away, waiting. ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

Ellie, how blessed we are that the creator of the universe longs to spend time with us. And He is there, waiting. Those who seek Him SHALL find Him. Thank you for your kind words. Have a great day, Juls

juliet,
  What can I say! Amen. Your poem beautifully written but the message and reminder moreso. I needed this reminder and I thank you. Stop and give Him our love and praise, give Him back our love. So spiritual.

Blessed you are to have the Lord speak to you so clearly... I think I would take heed.
...And I always knew the Lord was a poet.  Bob <><

Yes Bob and He speaks in so many ways. I see Him in everything around me. I love the way He gently reminds me when its been awhile since I just sat down and simply talked to Him. He truly is a father to me. Thanks for your kind words Bob and be blessed, Juls

Great piece!  I think our Lord is with us at all times, but sadly, we too often ignore it.  Thank you.

So true sandgrain. He is always with us. I can only speak for myself when I say, I just don't take the time to notice. What an awesome God He is. Thank you for the kind words. All the best to you, Juls

Faces, what nice things for you to say. If there is any talent in me at all I know its only from Him. Welcome to Passions and I hope you love it as much as I do. God bless, Juls

Juls I needed this one tonight! How true we get so busy in our lives, and tend to think of Him less and less.

This is beautiful and I'm sure the same would have left me weeping.  What an excellent reminder for us all!

very beautiful poem...but it's sad to think of how many people go thru life without ever calling his name...

Majestic, thank you for your kind words. And ya know it is sad to know that most people don't even realize that what their spirits are crying out for is their Creator. Have a wonderful day, Juls
