You Made A Way, To My Heart
You made a way to my heart
Through Your sacrifice
Oh how rich
Your fellowship can be
If I reach out to You
Oh, how I long for You
As an electron craves for a proton
Like a tide splashing on the sea shore
I wait for Your love
You made a way to my heart
For You created me
And You reached out to me
Like a storm
Bringing a driving rain
But at times
It seems I wear a rain coat
And put up an umbrella
So I don’t get drenched
In Your love
The door’s unlocked and opened wide
So please pour in
The windows are open
To let Your light shine through
The chairs are at the table
I’m just sitting
Waiting to dine with You
My arms are outstretched
Just waiting for You to blow
So I can fly above the clouds
And soar in Your breath
I want to be close to You
For You made a way to my heart
And I desire to stay
With You always
Oh, let the weight of the flesh
Be released
And let us fly together
The buck stops here
The past is gone
So let’s walk the clouds together
And go beyond the rainbow
For the pot of gold
Is that, You made a way to my heart

About the Book
Living in the presence of God is a high honor, a privilege, and the glorious life of a Spirit-filled believer who is committed to God. This poetry uses imagery that expresses a spiritual walk or journey with God, our Creator. Talking to the Lord, sharing with Him, cultivating friendship and intimacy with Him, while maintaining obedience to Him, are gateways to being in His presence. Listening and yielding to the Lord and worshipping Him are important ingredients in having a spiritual relationship with God. Think of prayer as being in His presence, facing Him, talking to Him, but remember that He is Creator, our heavenly Father, and we are His creation, made in His image. We must give Him admiration, praise, and our yielded selves to Him.
These writings express a longing to be with God and walk with Him on the highest plane possible. You can live in God’s presence. You can aspire for the mountain peaks and get there in God’s grace. God desires for us all to come in to His presence. God is calling you.
