Hi God, it's just me

i'm calling out to You from

the edge of myself

the ledge of my secrets

the hedge of Your grace

the pledge of Your protection

I'm a fledgling

under Your watchful gaze

and as i look back

i see You

and as i look out

from this edge of me

i see

the vast expanse of You

You penciled me in

long before

You created me

the color of my eyes

the color of my hair

the color of my soul

the shape of my ears

the shape of my heart

the shape of my love

the blueprints of my flaws

drawn in to make me

unique in my perfectly

imperfect features

Your fingerprints

all over my DNA

twisted ribbons

of Your sketch of me

my personal Designer

You have always known

where i was

where i am

and where i'm going

You met me at the

crossroads of world

and heaven

and put out Your hand

for me to take

and now i know

that when i step

off this ledge

i will soar

with wings

like eagles.

β€œBut those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah‬ ‭40‬:‭31‬ ‭NKJV

✨

β€œAs for me, I will call upon God, And the Lord shall save me. Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, And He shall hear my voice.” Psalms‬ ‭55‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
