Casting Out Grievousness
lest my poor heart
lie in doubt
filling me up
with anger's shout
failing in powerlessness
to the wills of grief
Lord†, help me open and see
what truth lies within me
help me do away
once and for all
this heart-eating wrath
of grief
take me
way down deep
open all parts of me
let them fall…each piece
that sours my sleep
awaken me fully
to the Spirit
who wants me…to keep
please take all of it
from me
wash me, purify me
to the liking
of He† who doesn't sleep
let me enjoy comfort
in the arms of Jesus†
who laid down His† life
‒keeping me out of creep
the loneliness of grief
which comes to enjoy
its pitfalls in angry
its doubting surgery
cutting inside of me
scaring me deep
please, Lord†, brace me
in free
out of grief's captivity
do away with these chains
that once bound me
in brevity
I cast out this grief
in Jesus'† name
I bid it farewell
for in the Lord†
I am free
living life
in joy and happy
knowing
the Kingdom awaits me
with no more need
for this body
just the Holy Spirit
whom I fought
to keep inside of me
I win
for freedom of me
I see!
(March 24, 2024)—The tenth commandment given to Hermas. Grief. Anger. Doubt.
He led me to Luke 11:1-4. The Lord’s Prayer! ‘…forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us…’
‘Yes, my Lord,’ I responded.
Then Luke 11:5-8: The Parable of Persistence, and Luke 11:9-13: ‘…So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened…’
