Begin being still

Good conversation
Is what I look for each day
Begin being still
This helps me become aware
Of a larger loving voice
I’ve discovered that my eyes
Are the windows to my heart
My mind will give direction
In the “morning watch”
Temptations will come
To take advantage of me
So I’ll guard my eyes
I’ll choose the focus
Many voices are calling
Anxiety knocks
Fear of the future
And the many ways harm comes
Can rob me of the now
“As iron sharpens iron”
We each sharpen the other
Let us consider
And look for the perspective
That is the reality
Where are you focusing now?

Your Story Matters 
Terry,
I love reading your thoughts. So many of them hit very close to home. I sent you a few (short) prayers by way of your church email, but I don’t know if you got them or not. No need to comment, but I wanted to be sure they reached you.
Cindy, Thank you for your comments. I will look forward to praying your prayers. Sara, (www.spacious4him.wordpress.com), my daughter set this blog up for my poems and I am thankful for the joy of reconnecting with you more often. We just got back from a trip and I have not been to the office yet.
Thank you sir, for your all so wise
and God filled words… one thing is for sure,
Your Story has certainly mattered in my God seeking heart.. Please know that, although no doubt, you have touched many people with your wisdom and willingness to share, I am one, whom you have touched, and you sir are definitely in my prayers.
GOD BLESS
