NaPoWriMo Day 18: Tether

IMG_20191027_150923439

Just some restless ramblings. 🙂


Wrap my head around it.

Not quite there yet, but

Peace within reach.

What a week it’s been,

Struggling with purposelessness,

When I know,

You have called me here for a reason.

Oh how hard obedience can be.

Such a small thing.

Such a big thing.

So easy to do the giant tasks,

So hard to just be.

That’s where I am, Lord.

I’m just here.

I’m not enough.

I’m overwhelmed.

I’m insecure.

I’m unsettled.

But…not truly.

If I –

If I just –

If I just stop.

Stop.

And listen.

And pray.

And hear.

My anchor is unmoved.

I just keep pulling at my tether.

Like that old hymn.

Prone to wander, Lord,

I feel it.

Yet you have taken my heart.

You have sealed it.

Keep me close, Lord,

Hold me fast,

Till I’m home with You at last.
