a battleground

surging, searching, determined manhunt –
dodging limbs of trees and arrows of foes,
then caught on some problematic trivia.
must. find. answers.

battleground mentality for a week —
each false footman is shot down,
one by one,
as the archer recklessly pursues his victory.

all-consuming confusion & desire for answers —
spare thoughts & idle moments
turn to
purposed, time-stealing focus…

.

P E A C E.

let there be peace.

my God is not confusion!
No.
He is a God of peace,
He is love Himself.

and truth and love coincide.

.

in my hurried preoccupation & obsession
a certainty of hope, a truth greater than me, calls me on —
a lighthouse in the dark of doubt & skepticism.

truth can be found.
truth must be found.

and JESUS,
I know
I know
I KNOW.

it’s you.

the way, the truth, the life.

sent from God, one with God, enthroned as God!

oh JESUS, keep calling me, keep holding onto me.

You are the truth!
