My Flesh - Day After Day

I still stand in amazement...

I pray and I wait...and then...

I don't see it...not with my eyes

I keep forgetting it's YOU...

Ten years later, it's so not me...

It's ALL about You

I'm driving and hoping...

It's getting late and I'm looking

I'm almost disappointed...

Nothing yet...says my flesh

And then...perfect timing

THERE YOU ARE

In my mind's eye, I can't decide...

The Holy Spirit speaks...

Gently, quietly...nudging me...

There beloved...right there...

Then HE speaks...

Not me, but Him speaking through me

I'm disappointed no longer

BUT TRULY AMAZED

Then WOW...All You

Do it again LORD, please...

The next day...

The pain in my back

The flesh just not wanting to....

But the Spirit...His Spirit...

Gently, quietly...nudging me...

There HE GOES AGAIN

Using me...in spite of my fears

In spite of my flesh...

Absolutely incredible…

Do it again my Lord, please...

Please...give me some more of that

And the next day...

Okay Beloved, look for it...

Holy Spirit leading, guiding and directing...

It's raining...surely not today Lord

Yes, today daughter...

Go out and tell them about ME

Looking and looking with these eyes of flesh

These eyes that have to see it...that have to be sure

Forgetting so easily that it's by FAITH alone

Not by sight precious child

AND HERE IT COMES AGAIN

There....across the street, I'll be with you

Tell her...walk her gently through MY Grace

Unbelievably Devine are You Lord

Ever patient with me

Ever present with me

Ever faithful day after day

In spite of my flesh

In spite of my fears

You show up...day after day...

Do it again My Lord...

Please...do it again...

Holy Spirit...gently, quietly...nudge me
