I am not eloquent

I am not articulate
I do not understand alot of the principles of English language
...or writing in its entirety
I'm just a girl that just loves to write
I write as it comes - sense and non-sense
Today is one of those days.
My feeling of inadequacy won't stop me or hold me back anymore.
I wrote about how suffering bought simplicity a while ago,
It was one of my "arranged" attempts to write about my feelings towards the lover of my soul did for me
for you.
Why did the words feel so inadequate?
what words could i possibly say to best describe this ultimate act of Love?
But today, i will drop my "feeling" of inadequacy and not try to be articulate, poetic or literally sound "right"
Today, i will just do what he expects of me.
speak the truth, from the deepest part of my heart.
Here it goes.
I grew up in the church, Lost.
religiously attending sunday services, Not transformed.
Listening to truth, still speaking trash from my heart.
Listening but not really listening.
I don't to ask how many of use are/were like that?
I thought I had found him, so I wasn't looking,
but i also felt empty, so i searched.
thinking what I had was "him" I looked for the more elsewhere
Little did i know that he was more, he is everything I needed.
When you are blind to the truth, you are really blind.
But in my little apartment in a land far away from home - he made me home.
Broken, broken-hearted, hopeless, searching, craving. He found me,
right there in that room, my journey started with him - In him - In me - with me.
In flesh he walked on the earth, so we can live.
bowed, bruised.
humbled, humiliated.
saviour, suffered.
son of man, mocked.
prince of peace, pierced.
Drip! Drip! Drip! goes the blood.
The blood that cleanses my sins - your sins - away and makes you worthy to dwell in his presence.
I am not perfect, I am still a work in progress.
Oh how glorious is what he did for me - for you.
All for Love.
That Love, Unconditional Love, inseparable Love.
Me, You, Redeemed by that blood, all for love.
Let the knowledge of that love pierce through you and draw you, me into his embrace.
If i were not here, if it was just you
He will do it over again, and again and again.
..All for Love!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteI don't know who you are but God knows you and i know he sees your heart. You sound really sincere and i need you to surrender to him totally, not trying in your own strength, and if you do want to talk can you send me an email at tomi.akibo@gmail.com? I would really really appreciate it.
