Seek and you shall find. Ask and you shall receive.
\nSo You have promised Lord, and so I\u2019ve found my calling.<\/p>\n
Silence and faithfulness till the earth which Thou spoke into existence.
\nThe Mighty One of old gives heed to my persistence.
\nLord I call upon Thee hear me, hear me O Lord.
\nReceive my prayer and supplication, O Master.
\nGuide my heart and life towards Thee, my only hope and blessing.<\/p>\n
A ray of uncreated light breaks through the clouds of daily cares.
\nA timeless, gentle whisper gathers strength, comes ever closer.
\nInfinite love and Truth draw near.<\/p>\n
Eternal Word humbles Himself again, descends towards His creation.
\nThe Father stretches His arms once more, embracing His invention.
\nEternity approaches!
\n<\/p>\n
The river of Life swirls all around me.
\nI sense the warmth and depth of uncreated goodness,
\nUnending love and an immortal essence.
\nTears of joy and gladness abound.
\nTears of remembrance and repentance join the waters of baptism.<\/p>\n
A litany of inspiration unfolds in quiet splendor.
\nMy soul is strengthened and uplifted.
\nAll earthly cares now lay aside.
\nDraw near in faith and love, embraced by timeless Spirit.<\/p>\n
The source of Life remolds anew the dust that He created.
\nAn earthen pot transformed into a vessel.
\nEternal Logos resonates in mind and spirit,
\nHealing the ancient faults brought on by human failings.
\nInfinite wisdom opens the floodgates of temporal revelation.
\nA symphony of words and phrases pour forth in waves of inspiration.
\nEmboldened messenger speaks simply of the truths that he\u2019s been given.<\/p>\n
A hint of kinship now spans across the ages.
\nBach, Beethoven, and Handle, Newton, St. Paul and Lewis, and many more illumined.
\nYou all bore witness to the Author of your blessings.
\nGod\u2019s symphony spreads out across all His creation,
\nTo all who seek and ask for His salvation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
