I Abide In God

I abide in God.

The Holy Spirit abides in me.

Jesus is the vine.

I am the leaves.

God is my tree.

I am God’s branch.

God is the Sun.

I am God’s sun ray.

God is the ocean.

I am God’s wave.

God is the Source

the Energetic force

that animates Life

coursing through me.

God is breath.

God is blood.

God is bone.

I dwell in God.

I abide in His presence.

I see God everywhere.

And nowhere.

ALL at once.

God is big enough

to be Alpha.

And small enough

to live inside of this

finite body.

I love you Lord.

I can feel you

filling me up

so the holes

in my soul—

stop bleeding.

God, my precious Lord

You are good.

You are faithful to me.

Through it all.

Today.

Tomorrow.

Forever.

You are a God

who never judged me.

You meet me where I am.

Always.

And forever.

I can feel you gently

seeping into my pores

as quiet certainty

arising in my chest.

I feel you ordering my steps.

Speaking when I talk.

Taming my tongue

so I do not harm.

Your love turns

appetites into options.

Mercy into my lifestyle.

Trust as my “come from.”

You show me how

to love me

instead of hoping

someone else will.

I love you Lord.

It is a blessing to be

your hands

your feet and

your voice.

I thank you

for choosing me.

I thank you

for using me.

I abide in you Lord.

You are all to me.

Thank you

for being my God.

In Jesus name,

Amen.
