My Most Heartfelt Poem

A quiet throne of peace
That stills my heart
And makes me want to scream!
In desperation
For more of something from a king
Whose pierced hands
Drew blood and tears around his heart
And saved me from a bitterness
That's disappeared
Because of two pierced hands
Of a king who loves me
And sent his peace as quiet as a dove.
To be still and know reality of who he is
Makes me quietly resound his love
And dance
And sing
And praise
And worship
And love
AND SCREAM!

His love...
Sitting still inside his presence
Is all that matters now.
It's life or death.

Jesus!

Life or death and
Peace or hate and
Joy or grief and...

Jesus!

How can I want less?

How can I ever have wanted any less than the
peace
and joy
and love
That comes from two pierced hands
Of a king who loves me?

Jesus!
What can I say, Lord!?
What can I do for you, Jesus!?
Jesus!
How can I tell you how grateful I am!?
I can't!!! I CAN'T!!!

Jesus, I need to know how much you love me.
That I would help them drive a nail through
your flesh.
That I would do something like that...
That you've felt and you know

And then to not accept you...and yet...

You love me, Jesus Christ.

Your love is...

Everything, Jesus,
What more could I want?
But you
Your love-
amazing,
wonderful,
so humble,
Creater of the Universe.
The beauty of your love.
How incomprehensible.
