Not To Wake

on

“Do you know what it is like,
to lie in bed awake;
with thoughts to haunt
you every night,
of all your past mistakes.
Knowing sleep will set it right –
if you were not to wake.”

    I’ve read the last eight of the poems that you’ve posted. Insightful, perhaps, but they really don’t lift one’s spirit, if you know what I mean. One of the greatest mysteries in this gift of life that we have been given is that there is One who is much greater than us and only when we enter into Him are those caverns within filled and satisfied. Rev 3:20 refers. God’s blessings on you and yours.

        Interesting way of saying you’re not interested when Jesus says He knocks at the door of your heart. God’s blessings to you and yours.
