I Promise You
I watch them pass
all day long
laughing, smiling
playing, talking
They seem so happy
carefree, normal
they seem as though
They are safe, secure
But they are not.
If they perished
At this moment
Danger, pain, loneliness
Is all they would know
Because they do not
Acknowledge the
beautiful blessing
sent by the King of Kings.
I see their faces
Hear their voices
Twisted in bitter
Agony.
I love them so,
My dear friends, companions
who so beautifully love me
in their own ways.
I ask my LORD
to help them see
Reveal to them
His glorious mystery
And in response
I do not get promises
of their future lives
Lived in Glorious Heaven
But a comfort
that touches me
head to foot
fingertip to fingertip.
"My Child,
listen carefully
to these words
You have ignored
for so long.
When you come home,
I will wipe every tear
from your precious
brown eyes.
There will be
no more sorrow
or pain
or grief.
I will take your sadness
and cast it out
far away.
You will never see nor
feel it again.
My home is free
from imperfection,
for it is Mine.
I know you love
many people
who reject Me,
I know you care
for those far from My Name.
But remember
that I have a plan
A seamless, perfect plan
That will work together for good,
Only good.
I want them to be with Me too.
But I want them
to want to be
with Me.
My plan acknowledges this.
My precious, beloved child,
do not mourn
for those who are not yet dead!
For I will cast your pain away.
This is My promise.
Count on it with all your might, for I
Never
Break My promises.
I love you, dear treasure."
