Poem: In The Wilderness

In The Wilderness

In the wilderness, I met my Lord,

The One who set me free.

His presence left me without words,

His arm outstretched and ready.

I was not worthy of His Holy sight,

I was not worthy to see His might!

Yet on a distant hill and for my heart,

My Savior met me when I ran far.

Like a deer running from a hunter’s bow,

Fear of Death gripped my will and my soul,

Then my eyes witnessed a miracle –

He skewed the hunter’s aim.

And my heart put my trust in Him

When He met me in the wilderness,

When He shielded me from the sting of Death

That tried to claim my name.

I’m getting back into watercolor painting! 🙂 My inspiration will always be God’s beautiful creations.
