i have posted part of this before...but it has just been on my heart again.
so if you've already seen it....
......um, i guess you may leave. :)
disturb me for the one whose given up
for the one who’s perseverance has run out
disturb me for the heart that knows no love
that looks everywhere else to find their worth
disturb me for the one who lives in chains
for the one who’s captive in the prison of their shame
disturb me as a former prisoner of despair
whose warden was her own jealousy and fear
*burden me so I can see your heart
that my hunger might be for something more
teach me how to serve
with words of grace and hands of love
i long to feel the dust around your feet
disturb me
disturb me in the places of my heart
that have hardened, become numb to life
disturb me out of comfort zones
remind me of the passion with which I once burned
disturb my happiness
that I may seek joy in you instead
disturb my busyness and noise
let your whispers be my guiding voice
*burden me so I can see your heart
that my hunger might be for something more
teach me how to serve
with words of grace and hands of love
i long to feel the dust around your feet
disturb me

I was redoing all of my bookmarks and happen to click on your blog ( since it's a bookmark) ironically here you are writing again. Thanks my friend :) Dang it - now I have to do it...
I can't wait to hear this when it is put to music and you are singing it...
I really like this.
This is really good
Abbylane found your blog by clicking next blog- what an inspiring piece of work, the poem, song. A lovely profile and not only of yourself of your friend as well. May the Lord continue to bless you and the creativity he has so blessed you with. Dave.
