...for knowing you is ETernity.......
Does Not Wisdom Cry Out?
FALSE NURTURE FOR SELL! Get your unfufilling meal here , for a small price!
Sure to leave you with an uncontented contentment!
Vendors for these passing delicacies surround me,
bright lights, marketing temporary deligts.
A seemingly appetizing feast for a hungry and thirsty heart and soul.
But , Wisdom calls in the distance
a soft voice
but familiarity causes me to turn my head slightly to listen.
"Turn away from the luring display", she says.
And with her voice i recall,
a feast ,
the recollection of the taste lingers.
Something more desirable
more delightful
more fulfilling.
Wisdoms' quiet voice is now louder,
droning out the shrill call of false pleasures.
With the knowledge of Truth,
inspiring the springing forth of desire and longing in my uncontently satiated heart.
Leading me to remeber commands to take hope , to delight myself
in You.
As i recall the Truth of your grace,
your goodness,
your infinitie wisdom
perspective is returning as i lose awarness of myself.
As Truth provokes song , dance ,
reverence, silence , trembling
clapping , spining and laughing
All worshipping ,
springing forth uninhibited,
unlimited
and unashamedly .
As Wisdom speaks again ,
this time so louder, so nearer.
Reminding me of folly in settling for the pleasures of the now silent vendors.
"It is here" , she cries. "Where God's glory and your desire for joy meets."
It is here in worship,
upon YOur bread i feast,
in your streams i bathe and drink waters that turn into streams
flowing vigourously out of me.
As i lose myself in the response to you ,
TRUTH.
I now know why you are the Treasure in which one would give all for
For who or what could compare to you ?
Rule and reign ,my heart, now maddened with delight , cries.
Spread the fragrance of YOur Name,
exult your Justice ,
Your Wisdom,
Your Grace ,
Your Sovereignty,
TO THE NATIONS! TO THE HEAVENS!
through us the church
through this here , now ,
worship.
Wisdom interupts my spirits exclamations, one final time.
"Be warned of the danger of this hunt", she keenly states .
The sound of false lovers will again bray.
And the enemy of a to easily pleased heart is not readily turned away.
Be dilligent and filled with resolve to seek Him,
come what may ,
through what may come.
With face beaming ,tears of affections now falling
I now know what i have been created for,
upon You i gaze intently
drink deeply ,
worship eternally.
