This poem was written from my hospital bed following God’s command to write poetry. It is one of several ‘healing’ poems that I wrote over 3 days on Christ the solid rock on which I stand. The conclusion that GOD is the most important person in my life brought much needed perspective.
I Have You
When the past is gone
And the future is not yet,
I have the present,
I have you.
When it is dark and I cannot see,
Or the brightness of your light blinds me,
I have sight
In you.
When it is dry and my lips are chapped,
Or scorched with the heat of your love,
I quench my thirst
In you.
When I am wading through your blessings,
Bubbling over with living waters,
I reach out
To you.

Stand firm in Christ
I pray this poem will work as a reminder to both you and I to consider all things in perspective.
