The Rising Son

Proverbs 8:17 (KJV) - I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me. Before the sun crosses the mountains, Slightly misty just beyond the seas – There is a passion rising up in my spirt, A need to chase after the fire, the brilliance Of the One who silences the wind, Glistens in the stars and remembers that my Peace abides because He lives, because He survives the darkest dread, the doubt And the despair that create such fear in my head Before the sunlight reflects the dew glittering On the leaves, embracing the skinny branches, Healing the soul with a colorless beauty, A breathe of richest peace, silencing the darkness Erasing the worst storms with a powerful Beauty, a recollection of the sparkling stars, Shimmering beyond the reach of a heart who Only remembers the ache, the torturing touch Feelings, both woeful and willful, urging My soul to reach out to the One who colors The entire world in a serenity that flows with light, A brilliant stream of His paradise – whispering… Before the morning kisses my cheek, there is a Sense of the reflections brought to life by Him, His gentle truth, His sacred reach into my soul Where I sincerely believe – He is my reason He is my hope – He makes a way through the sorrow, He fills me up with a desire as I reach toward the fire The passion that He stirs when He breathes love Through the aching spirit that sighs freedom into The prison of my doubts and fears, erasing the worry Wiping away each tear with the assurance That He is alive, inside, where He covers me in grace That abounds and tears down every wall, Each sorrow is released to the stars and the Worst memories, the worst of the past… Is gone like the hardness that once lived in my heart He is a good, good God – and my love for Him Is a love that says, “He spreads His laughter, His Music, His breath of kindness and creativity… Through my soul, where I know – I can always be Certain that He is ALIVE and He is giving me a Promise of the future, when I’ll be with Him in paradise – Thanks to His greatest blessing, His greatest sacrifice… The reason that I’m able to know Him like I do – Because of His death and His rising – I can know the Meaning of life, the meaning of love, the meaning That draws each breath into a smile with that RISING SON!
