Broken

[Kaibeto]

I stand here broken
My pride
My selfishness
My ego is no more.
I break the chains that
Have kept me bound for
so long.
Reaching for the sky I
look for the eagle to
sweep down and pick
me up, from the city
immaturity and lies.
That have kept me
from believing in love
and myself.
I run towards the
eagle so he won't
pass me by.
I stand broken
reaching for the sky.
Will he look down
Will he see me
Broken, free
and ashamed.
Will he come and
pick me up.
Dust me off and
council me.
Or will he pass me
by like a stranger
in a crowd.
I stand here alone
without the respect
that I have lost.
I stand here broken
without the peace in
my heart.
I stand here broken
with out the peace in
my soul.
In the city of immaturity
and lies.
As I watch... watch the
eagle pass me by.

[Yeshua]

The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Ps. 34:18

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. Ps. 147:3

 

[Jonah2005]

In some ways this poem does remind me of me!

When I, for the very first time excepted The Almighty GOD & Christ Jesus in my life, I had often felt a simulor feeling to where it is discribed as:
'I look for the eagle to sweep down and pick me up' Because I use to think to myself - how wonderful it would be if Jesus would come down in His Chariot & pick me up to go & help Him fight & destroy all the evil spirits.

And there was yet, another time not to long ago when I felt simulor to where it said:
"Reaching for the sky I look for the eagle to sweep down and pick me up, from the city immaturity and lies."

But this time it was a dream I had!

And in this dream I did fly. But at first, in this dream, it felt like I was nailed to a cross but there was no-pain & when the cross was being raised up to stand up-right, it felt as though I was flying.

Just like an eagle, flying around a city that was corrupted & gangsters, homeless children & parentless, a city filled with liers.

And when I had landed back down again I found myself spying on some kids - gangsters-like.

And they were getting ready to do harm to 2 little boys of the ages of 3-5 years of age - I step in & I save the 2 little boys, by anouncing The Almighty GOD & Jesus Christ to the gangster, by saying - No! - & warning them that niether GOD nor Jesus would want them to harm these children!

Once again this was only a dream that I had a couple of weeks or so agoe!

But what a powerful dream it was! Jonah2005 {*genesis!}

I stand here broken
My pride
My selfishness
My ego is no more.
I break the chains that
Have kept me bound for
so long.
Reaching for the sky I
look for the eagle to
sweep down and pick
me up, from the city
immaturity and lies.
That have kept me
from believing in love
and myself.
I run towards the
eagle so he won't
pass me by.
I stand broken
reaching for the sky.
Will he look down
Will he see me
Broken, free
and ashamed.
Will he come and
pick me up.
Dust me off and
council me.
Or will he pass me
by like a stranger
in a crowd.
I stand here alone
without the respect
that I have lost.
I stand here broken
without the peace in
my heart.
I stand here broken
with out the peace in
my soul.
In the city of immaturity
and lies.
As I watch... watch the
eagle pass me by.

A simple prayer to pray

I wrote this to focus each day .... very basic writing but maybe it will help you x

Thank you Jesus for today
May I love you more each and everyday
May my heart be open to all you are
May I understand you more as my guiding star

And if I get lost help me find my way
So I can rejoice as I kneel and pray.

Amen
