Darkness tries to access
Her deepest part - where
She is most vulnerable:
The core of her heart

So deceptive it is
Snaking and sneaking;
The lies of desire
That are false yet are gleaning

Her feelings tremble so
As it tries to shake
The joy in her heart
Which seems so at stake

She is always aware
That attack will arise
On her hearts True desire
To distort His Truth into lies

Her energy is spent
On assessing the confusion;
Not handing her burden
To the Lord of Resolution

But His Truth is the victor -
From which her heart cannot hide
From deep within its well reveals
His joy that does reside

Still, she wrestles with thoughts
Produced within her mind -
And wrestles with feelings
Usually opposite in kind

In the purging of her heart -
The threats do draw her near;
To desire communion
With God in Holy fear

In so doing she does find
That her so-called - 'desires'
Were beautifully transformed
Into His vision and His fire!

Born again since age 7 thanks forever to Billy Graham; my prodigal years were ages 13-21... where I lived and died to self - found life in Jesus. Thankful for His forgiveness, I live life according to John 3:16... and always running the race; growing in Christ; maturing: a life-long process.
