Clare Mar 2020
Walking blind
When the tornado strikes
And you don’t see it coming
You hold on for dear life

Walking blind
You alone feel it
And you are very much alone
Alone and bewildered but not alone

Walking blind
Riding the dark storm
You don’t see the road ahead
Hearing no divine instruction you stand

Walking blind
Your visions are dead
You are failing on every level
Jesus will now have the victory
Clare May 2021
Is life materialism and health?
Or is it success and fame?
Or comfort, security and money?

What’s the meaning of life?
A few bask in immoderate luxury
Others just struggle to exist…

Surrendering to God is key
Discovering and apprehending the Lord’s way
Brings satisfaction, joy and peace

But existing with divine disappointments
Ever trusting and believing beyond hope
Is only meaningful to God

Life is worshipping the Lord
Giving Him all of our lifetime
For it’s all about Him

In a moment of time
Life will be turned upside down
Will we be truly ready?
Clare May 2020
When all has gone quiet
And you hear nothing
You see naught
You cry
Help

But there’s none to answer
You search for something
You find nothing
You scream
Help

Life has passed you by
No husband is present
Kids are absent
You whisper
Help

Jesus, I know you’re here
But I sense nothing
All is pointless
I mutter
Help

Where are you my precious Lord?

Here
Very near
I love you
You are my treasure
I will never leave you

Listen
Be still
I speak softly
Attune your auditory senses
Know that I am God

Trust
Be confident
I know all
I’ve counted your tears
I am ever with you

Wait
Be patient
I will come
Suddenly out of nowhere
As a bolt of lightning
Clare May 2020
Waiting for his time
Hoping beyond all hope
Yelling aforetime His victory

Aborting all negative thoughts
Laughing at apparent defeat
Labouring for the Kingdom

Tasting His sweet presence
Holding fast to promises
Identifying the enemies’ tactics
Studying His wonderful Word

Silencing the inconsiderate remarks
Unearthing His precious pearls
Finding the hidden positives
Focussing fully on Him
Energizing ourselves in prayer
Rising above our feelings
Improving our daily lives
Nestling in His arms
Giving everything to Him
