Listen!

Listen when it’s busy,

Listen when it’s still.

Listen when you’re healthy,

Listen when you’re ill.

Listen when it’s dark and dim,

Listen when light shines through.

Listen even in your sadness because I want to speak to you.

Listen my children because your life depends on it,

I had to shut things down just to get you to sit.

Now, that I have your attention,

I need you to repent and pray.

Because the time is getting closer and shorter is the day.

Prepare my bride, your wedding day is coming soon,

There will be signs and wonders,

And even blood colored moons.

Don’t be distracted. Please lean in. I’m calling out to thee.

For the day is coming when you shall stand before me.

Instead of storing up your earthly treasures,

Be found building things that are heavenly.

For all this will soon pass away,

And will be no good to thee.

But if you are wise Beloved,

You will one day wear a crown.

So, don’t get caught with your work undone before the sun goes down.

I am an educator, a wife of 24 years, and mother of three beautiful children. I have taught the word of God to all ages and love to share it in creative ways. I've always had a passion for written expression. Over the years, I have documented my personal thoughts and prayers. Poems, devotionals, worship songs, and more have come from my life experiences. Now, I am ready to share them with the hope that lives and hearts will be changed as well as greatly blessed. I am flawed but striving for perfection in Christ. Although I have fallen short of the glory of God, I am forgiven. I am loved with an everlasting love. I am FREE! View more posts
