His Love

His spirit calms my own soul
Like a cool, clear stream, his quiet 
Soothes and silences every fear, all my tears
Even the whispers of a past where I was filled with
Dread and doubt, my light fading… fading, fading out

His nature relieves my worries
Like a summer sky, azure dreams, boundless faith
Whispers of grace restoring my light, my inspiration
My imagination colors even shadows in a smile, a joy
Felt by a heart who knows Him, the wonder, the kindness

His reassurance and abiding kindness
Like sighs from the spirit, singing sweetly
Completely assured of the music who restores
Even the laughter to the soul who knows Him, His love
Promising to release the spirit from its endless darkness

His temperament is like wisdom
Erasing every suspicion with a promise
Pure conviction, confidence in His love, His light
The rays of joy He will provide to those who know Him
His ways are comforting, palliative, gentling even the past

His essence stirs my very soul
With reflections of hope, peace and love
Hushing the furious worries and anxieties that shout
Leaving me uncertain of my place, my direction, my abilities
Needless to say, His consolation is like a breath of saving peace

His love awakens the truth in me
Love this real goes beyond words or poetry
It is a feeling – yet, more importantly, more assuredly
A person – Jesus, the One who makes me feel like I’m worthy
Even though I’m so very imperfect, so undeserving, so unsure

His love is the answer to my prayers
The sweetness in my faith, the color in grace
The murmur of belief when I don’t know the way
The relief He brings is like a solace that is heartening
His love is the breath of light poured out in my life, redeeming

His love is alive – like a fire, a desire, a light…
	Raining down joy beyond knowing – all over my heart
