Devotions
I find a quiet place
And I close my eyes
I block any thoughts of the world
And I emerse myself in your word
Your presence wraps around me
And I find comfort in your strength
I reflect upon my day
On the good
And the bad
I see that you were with me
Guiding me
Steering me clear from evil
And the things that went wrong
That was my fault
For I didn't listen to your voice
That silent, strong, loving voice
And I pray that tomorrow
I will do better
I will be open to your voice
Your Word, your wisdom
But for now,
I will draw close to you
Let your presence fill me
Fill me to overflowing
I relish this time
Spent in your Word
In your presence
You are all I ask for
I love you Lord.
This is a poem I wrote last night while doing my nightly devotions. I almost didn't post it, but I thought maybe it would be inspiring to others, that maybe you will be challenged to do daily devotions. I know that it has helped me, since I started, to reflect on my day and what God has done. It puts me in a different mindset, and helps my week to go a little more smoothly. Please tell me what you think; though I doubt I'll change anything. This is just my personal feelings and thoughts, the last thing I want to do is change it to fit around what others want, because really, it's just between me and God. But please let me know what you think.
