She’s Poetic: Glorious Inexpressible Joy

Many Characteristics are claimed to your name

Your mightiness intimidating most, the enemy using lie to cover the truth and abstain from everything but lie

But how is it that I feel this Tenderness when some have no desire to get even remotely close

Fear of your wrath being stronger than the reality of your keen Heart

This hesitance a stumbling start to most

I wish they could feel that gentle nudge you give me to make steps of Bold

How can I reveal to them those moments that are too tender to even behold

Your presence consuming and your correction is sweet

Not like most fear, not little or even discreet

Warmth in your midst is the margin of this gain

Some fear you’re a giant who tramples with hate and distain

Truth, however is your eagerness for us to grow

You’re intertwined in our lives, Lovingly convincing us, that in this moment, you well know

The brush of your presence, your sweet words to remind

You guide me this way, because you are Gracious and Kind

So how is it that so many have lost sight

Of the gentle giant that many have left behind

You plead Joy with us Lord

And see Faith more precious than mere Gold

So now in the time of need, I see the depth of what you hope to behold

A people of Faith bonded together with glee

This may seem ridiculous or to many, even with out need

But if we open our eyes

Then its possible to see

That with Great Joy Comes an Triumphant Victory

Trampling death, circumstance,and the pits that inevitably come

God whispers to us that, with Joy, we OVERCOME

So this small word may be over looked

But its time now to revisit what God had intended when he started this Earth

Do you feel it now

The ground beneath us groaning

He’s looking for Warriors

The ones Joyfully following the call

An up rising, YES! and it starts with “Come one, Come all”

The Power is with in us

Bottled and captive for far too long

The only way to release it is to pry open these hammered crates

So let your Joy honor and reveal the power of Christ’s blood

Its time for the gates to open

And allow the flood

1 Peter:1-8 “So be truly glad.There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy.”
