the God day

the God day

by Lynette Friesen

 

 I came to him

 Open to the pain of my sin

 The regret and remorse

 The fall-on-your-knees cries of failure

   

 Wanting to seek what he has for me

 Knowing I come so short of the goal

   

 But do you know what he did?

   

 He told me "Joy"

 He said to take his freedom and dance

 To savor the pleasure of this day

 To celebrate the gifts of the people and the peace for today

   

 To join him in the celebration

 To let the "what ifs" go

 And savor the beauty of his love

 To let it wash over me

 To run and play and laugh with him

 On this God day.
