Come and Drink! Come and See! The LORD IS GOOD!!

Come and drink!

Come and see!

The Lord is good,

Is good to thee.

Come drink freely from the Vine,

taste new life that’s better than wine

an elixir of life 

bringing peace and joy

unknown 

until
one comes
and sits down

at the vine,

drinking freely

of Me,

forever.

Then you'll find

joy
love 

peace

mercy

self-control

that come from drinking freely

of the source

of life

that never ends.

Drink freely, dearest one,

and forever

you will know

the joy of love,

in the midst of sorrow and pain,

and no longer search,

as an addicted one,

for anything but Me

to fill you up and

transform the

misery

and pain

that you have

lived with

for

so long

until

you choose

to come to Me

and bare your soul

and be set free

forever!

There's a New Day Coming!

sadness

      tears

overwhelming pain

    memories

that won’t go away

memories

      keep circling

‘round and ‘round

 the body

    remembers

              the

                   pain

tears 

    falling

         freely

 slowly,

   at

     first,

 then building

        into a

     

                                              O!!!

B-U-R-S-T-I-N-G

   the tension

       and fears,

 with gut-wrenching sobs

      and  more

    and  more

         tears

a shake and

       a  tremble

feeling  t i r e d

   worn out

         and

            d e p l e t e d

            and

    soul

of the one

    who

   takes

  a breath

     and  

   breathes

        in

 the breath of  

    new life

     deeply 

 into their soul,

     knowing

       they

        are

        still

     ALIVE,

   living and

     whole,

   believing

      there

     truly is

        a

     NEW

     DAY

  COMING!!
