Testifying Time!!!!! Shall we...press-on? Amen!


Poem Artwork

 

I have…No Room to Boast

as, from…the corridors of errors…

to the channeled hall of wisdom

then, high on lofty heights, but …

falling into the chasms

I am found…

journeying here

Up among the stars, yet…

in an instant…plummeted…to

lowest bar

treading on …

moving in directions I know not, but…

finding comfort in His simple songs

on my pilgrim way…pressing…  

amid… Redeemed throng

I have…No Room to Boast.

Surrendered to Heaven’s Best

praying always to do my best

weathering…every…test

solely due to…mercy and grace wrest

eating daily… of the Endurable Word

which flows in every manner

til’ He comes…

I will overcome…every clamor

having…

No Room to Boast

Pardon me if I refuse to bow

but this voyage…isn’t mine, so now…

let me introduce you to…The King

who is the Power…in everything

His Name is Wonderful Counselor…

Prince of Peace…The Great ‘I am’

His Name is Yahweh, Jehovah…

The Beginning and the End

Without Him I could not sail

He is the covering and veil

that makes me…seem…so perfectly entail

but it’s all Him…

He…is the Vim…

Present…from hour to hour

beneath His wings…I cower

I find it rightfully … fair…

while pilgrimaging here…

to give the Glory to…Whom…it is due…

The God of me…the God You

it is…Him…who keeps me in…resolved…pew

He …is my Eternal Host…

surveyor of each… sun to moon…coast

Albeit, as far as…my existence…is concerned?

I emphatically have…

No Room to Boast!

 

Eph 2:8-9, Ps 44: 6 & 8, Rom 7:18-25, Acts 17:28

I've never noticed any boasting. Just being a humble servant to what you think is the reason why you exist.

To paraphrase a Quranic verse: We have been created in the best of forms, and then cast down to the lowest of the low, experiencing the full spectrum. Your poetry is always inspiring.

We are mere pilgrims following His love and hoping for the best dear Joyce, if we boast its only for the fame of God above, :)
