As Promised

Thank you, Lord,
for firmly holding my hand
as promised
while I fidget like a sugar-fed child,
whine, drop to the floor, fists pounding

Thank you for unbreakable mirrors
labeled Isaiah 3:16, Psalm 12:4, James 2:20

The Lord's promises are pure
and are meant to purify

You will be my people
and I will be your God

You must be set aside,
allow me to consume you completely

But someone substituted his ability for my inability
on a dead tree on Golgotha,
thereby parting the sea of death for me

He alone is worthy to be praised
I trust the Lord
He has never let me down

Why do you tell me to fly away to safety
like a sparrow,
when Jesus tells me to rise like an eagle?

He has broken me
and now I rejoice,
because God is faithful forever
