Imploring....Receiving

Is there anything so satisfying as answered prayer...? I think not.

Imploring

Take me through...Sweet Jesus

help me stand...against the plough

Take me through...Sweet Jesus

please be my help...here and now

If I'm to stand today...Sweet Jesus

Thou must give me...added strength

Take me through...Sweet Jesus

Thou my keeper...ever since

Receiving

When He comes...

the air...that vibrant life giving source

is stilled...we breathe Him.

Joy...to an extent thought unattainable

flows in...abundantly

He invades our isolated places

...razing despondency's darkness.

When He comes...glows

from the heaven's most dominant lights

are shamed...

even the shines from millions of dust particles

cannot shadow...the Bright and Morning Star!

His entrance saturates...

in such unpronouncable ways...that chains

...heavy with life's assaults...are shattered

...spirit, mind, body and soul are revived.

And you know...

anyone could have visited...anyone could have

offered a word or two of encouragement but...

none...could have touched...so deep

...none could have filled...so complete

No...none...could have satisfied your yearning

to the heights of splendor so pronounced

which can only be obtained...

When He comes

Is 65:24

This is delightful treasure by a creative, blessed writer. Thanks for this one, Joyce. I am moved, once again.

Sturdy masterpiece written in liturgical style which chapels the altar with a sense of purpose and power. Imploring...Receiving, I envision lying upon the sacred altar table with chalice and white ostrich plume quill as religious affirmation penned on parchment made as an offering by Joyce Bell...your work points to the new visual religious language which eventually leads to professional literary religious works, Joyce...it's a spiritually liberating piece...Blessed Be. Warmly, Sage

... He took you through, Joyce! Most beautifully! :)) Love the awe and breathless exhilaration and energy that is also so delicately expressed in your second part. Indeed, nothing is as awe-inspiring as the experience of answered prayer. You put this wonderfully. xx
