Seeking: The Heart Of Love

Why is it so hard today,
For me to seek thy kingdom first?
My dreams all blow away,
Like leaves upon a heavy wind.
And then I realize that I,
Must thirst your presence first.

When I try to find my own way,
The road is rough and long.
The fact that I travel downhill,
Should convince me of my wrong.
And yet your hand keeps reaching out,
To draw me back again so strong.

You live inside my heart,
Oh God, it must be painful there,
To be ignored by one you love,
A one who’s life you want to share.
And still your love keeps holding me,
And showing me how much you care.

Oh God, guard it well, my heart,
You know how easily it is hurt,
When I am foolish in my thoughts,
And when they are far from you.
Lord of my life, reach out your hand,
And draw me back again to you.

Magicmystery...So beautifully put. How we often ignore the Lover of our souls. Yet, He is ever there for us. ***Ivy Rose

(BIG HUGGGSSSSSS) Oh Sherry, we can feel your prayers through these words, we can all be fragile in these times, but He will always be our Lord and will guide us always and make our hearts gold and sable of pure love! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is powerful! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sherry, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Magic Mystery,

I think you summed your poem up very nicely at the end when you state...."Lord of my life...." That does seem to be the biggest battle in our Seeking.... Our complete surrender. Very nicely written verse.

i feel this to its so easy to push God away and ask for him in times of need, but he will always be there for you. God Bless you.

Life is about change,sometimes its painful,sometimes its beautiful,sometimes its both.
