Conversational Prayer-Sonnets and Scriptures

January 2 ~

He maketh my feet like hind's feet, and setteth me upon my high places ... sets me secure on the mountains ... behold, the kingdom of God is within you ...
Ps.18:33 (KJV,NEB); Lk.17:21 (KJV)

The High Places

I wait within thee, on a mountain peak
made visible when thou dost dare Me seek;
when thou dost dare forsake, leave Self behind
and enter in My realm. There Me thou'lt find,
arms open, standing midst the mists on high
far, far above Earth's tawdriness and lie.
E'er there I wait, till thou dost dare by faith
leap 'cross the gulf that hides from thee My face.

Hast not the truth upon thee yet clear dawned?
If Thou seek Me 'bove all, I will be found!
When finding me becomes thy highest goal
my high places appear within thy soul.
My realm becomes thy realm to enter in!
Now! Heaven waits within for thee to win!
