Awake.

No simple

Past tense here

Nor delusions of

Politically correct

Grandeur.

Awake.

Eyes wide open

Seeing, thinking, feeling

Sensing, praying.

Always in sync

With God

Master planner

Watchman, Gatekeeper

Commander of

The heavenly host

He who

Designed, upkeeps

Protects

Who never sleeps.

Awake.

Here in the present

Acutely aware of

The Sovereign One

Whose only ask?

That we

Look up

As He

Looks down.

Swap tunnel vision

For panorama

Noting all

He has created

And in turn

Ensuring

We cater

Lovingly

For everything

That vista

Encompasses.

Awake.

Flexible

Teachable

Ardent.

Faith

With works, folks!

Knowing

And doing

Then

Watching Him

Build a fortress

Round us

Guarding

Guiding

Enabling

So long as

We stay

Awake.

📖 A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon.

“Unless Adonai builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless Adonai watches over the city, the watchman stands guard in vain.”

Psalms 127:1 TLV (YouVersion)
