Surrender

 

Surrender

 

Who is this Energy who breathed life into me?
Who whispered into my soul, a name?
Who is the Creator that decided I had Purpose and belonging?
Who is the Being that wants a relationship with me?
Who is this Father who loves me unconditionally
              forgives me, when I ask
              and knows me better than I know myself?

Surrender

Who is the One who gave me an inquisitive brain
              a curious mind
              that forms words
              thoughts
              and speech?
A mind that never stops
              until I close my eyes
              and feel my heart
              and become one with my breath.


Surrender

Who is the Light that speaks only
              when I finally grow silent.
Who speaks the words into my soul...
              Believe
              Trust    
              Know   
              I will never leave you
              I will never forsake you
              You are loved

Surrender

Who is the great Almighty who breathed life into me
              and formed a mind
              that questions my beliefs
              and wonders about Spirit(uality)
              and yearns to have a deeper relationship
              with Something I cannot see or know for certain exists?

Surrender

Who was It that crafted my heart to beat life
              for only a matter of Time?
Who was the I Am that formed
              eyes that allow me to see wonder in a single snowflake
              ears to hear the locusts chorus a love song in the heat of summer
              a sense of smell to the fragrances of life
              a tongue with thousands of microscopic sensors to taste the fruits of the Earth
              and skin, nerves, and neurons to feel, touch and hold our curiosities?

Surrender

Who is the Almighty that painted a rainbow of emotions within me...
              that arouse a sense of
              wonder
              awe
              gratitude
              but also
              fear
              anger
              hurt

Surrender

Who is He
              that asks me to have faith?

My heart beats in the silence.

Surrender
