around we go

Posted on

I run this race

flying on the wings of the great eagle

who flew here too

Christ

His life flew threw earth

busting the grave

ripping the veil

becoming the chief cornerstone

to make me whole

This daily walking

remembering to find grace

see the need

This daily calling out

for His hand of mercy

His covering in the day of war

This daily listening

to Your spirit speak to my heart

to follow this leading inside

This daily stand

for truth in my life

to be salt and light

Remembering to speak thanks

give praise

This daily obeying

of the still small voice

And in all things

these simple things

we all have learned over and over

from our beginnings here

to walk, call, listen, stand, obey

are these not our cycles of motion

around the mountain

we sit down and get stuck in a rut

we look to ourselves and make a mess

we listen to the voices in the crowd and go the wrong way

we move on and through as if it’s all ok

forgetting our God called us to be a standard bearer

we refuse to submit and loose the blessing of our king

Round and around we go

taking and retaking the test until we go Home

  5. If only we could just keep our eyes firmly on Christ. This feels sad, but it’s also full of Hope. Thanks for sharing your beautiful prose, Starla.
