in your presence

in the midst of your presence, suddenly i'm released from all my worry, doubt, striving and hiding. in a moment here with you, my heart overflows with trust and a deep sense of security. in the light of your glory, i stand humbled and in awe, that your goodness and strength is so great, that i'm at peace with being so small. it's when i draw near to you and all you are, that i become okay and unaware of all i am not, and more sure of who you've made me (uniquely) to be. and in the gaze of your faithful love, hope arises and fills every part of me, knowing-oneday- it'll all be worth it.

that there will be a day when all the pieces come together... the unknown, become known. the why's, answered. every tear, wiped away. all confusion, at peace. when the Faithful one comes and covers all. joy restored and all redeemed. the One all my hope's in and forever had faith in, right before me, is now my sight. ah... for that day, i await.

"though you have not seen Him, you love Him; and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious Joy! for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your soul."
1 peter 1:8
