Isaiah 51:3
For the Lord shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
This poem is an invitation to join our loving God in the sweet place of prayer that promises peace and joy for our soul. I think it sounds so inviting; I yearn to go there now even as I speak.
A Walk in the Garden
Walk with me in the garden; where the birds sing,
An anthem of praise for the King.
Allow your heart to open up its door wide,
To allow the Son-shine deep inside.
In this place hope flowers and blooms in wild display.
Faith soars like an eagle in its majestic way.
The eyes of the heart are opened with great possibility.
What was hidden before is now clearly seen.
Come, my love, at any time of day.
I will gather you in arms of comfort, and will lift your spirit to praise.
Bring with you all the things you need to mend,
With full confidence your God attends.
Come, smell God’s goodness and feel the beauty of His smile.
Revel in the knowledge you His beloved child.
Take away His peace, His joy, and His love my friend.
Share with others and be sure to come back again,
As often as you desire to the garden with your King.
You will surely have a heart that sings.
Prayer
Father there is no place I would rather be. I love the beautiful place of prayer, I love the sweet confidence and peace poured into my soul. Thank You for providing such a lovely sanctuary for our soul.
