I feel like a deer

I feel like a deer, buck or antelope in the desert. No rain fell for a very long time. The vultures are circling and there is no oasis... no water and no food. I am awaiting my death and there is no hope in my eyes. I look up to the heavens and there is no clouds.. no promise. There is nothing at all.

I see the carcasses of those that use to walk with me. I see the bones of those that should have been forgotten. I see myself.

I see death.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Who shall speak to me. Who will come into this forsaken land and tell me of my ways. Who will sacrifice their overflowing worlds and lives to give me truth and hope. Who will open my eyes unto myself so that I could know that there is a way that is not death. Who will be willing to walk amongst the carcasses in the blistering sun and heat and who will be willing to look into my hopeless empty eyes of death. Who will be able to change me and if there is anybody willing to do. Would this country be able to change. Tell me. Is there hope... is there hope at all...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I look up to the heavens.

Unto my Lord I cry.

"Oh sweet Master"

Tears filled my eyes.

"Be Thee the One of Healing...

Be Thee the One of Life...

Be Thee the One and Only

And am I to be Thy wife..."

"Could I ask Thee my Master

Could I ask Thee for life

Could I ask Thee for this desert

To be turned unto Thy life

Always will I praise Thee

Always will I sing

All unto Thee my Sweetness

My Master... my King.

We could dance in the sweetness of laughter

We could sing in the waters of life

Together we could play

In this garden turned from death unto life

Forgotten all the heartache

Forgotten all the death

Forgotten all the pains

As You breathe them in... new breath

Fresh as a spring in summer

sweet as the dew on grass

lovely as roses' petals

and never will it pass"

"My sweetness, My love.. My laughter

Do you want Me now to cry..

What you ask will be My pleasure

for this desire I could never deny.!

I give thee the seed that's needed

I give thee the breath of Mine

I give thee enough water

And Blood and Flesh and wine

You know what to do My sweetness

You know the way of life

You know of sowing and reaping

And you know our Father's life

Do what you do best dear

Do it and never doubt

Do it and do not wonder

Praise as the seedling sprout

Whilst it grow up I want your laughter

Whilst it sprout I need a tear

When it's grown and strong and bearing

It will know no death.. nor fear

It will stand so strong and high love

It will never shed a tear

It will bring Me joy and gladness

And to you.. My love.. My dear

It will give you monthly flowers

It will give you daily juice

It will give you joy and laughter

Whilst you are walking in My shoes

Never doubt Me, never wonder

Never think of things.. but Me

Never take on ways to ponder

Be for ever... always... free.
