Reflections

I'm taking this wonderful "class" on becoming a Christian caregiver called the Stephen's ministry. In our first session, we were given a bible verse and asked to reflect on it. Here's what I came up with....

The verse:
The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
He will quiet you with his love
He will rejoice over you with singing.Zephaniah 3:17


My Reflections:

Sobbing on the floor,
Flailing arms and legs
Broken heart! Broken spirit!

The Lord is mighty to save!
He is with you
And will quiet you with His love.

Cursing out the door,
Destructive thoughts and words
Clenched fists! Clenched teeth!

The Lord is mighty to save!
He is with you
And will quiet you with His love.

Sneaking through the halls,
Scrutinizing eyes and ears
Grasping hands! Grasping feet!

The Lord is mighty to save!
He is with you
And will quiet you with His love.

Hiding in the closet,
Knocking knees and elbows
Chattering teeth! Chattering soul!

The Lord is mighty to save!
He is with you
And will quiet you with His love.
