The Hope, The Love, The Peace -- Jesus Is

The darkness prevails upon us
It comes at evening time
when the sun has set
and the afterglow is gone
Cloudy gray skies
of daylight time
dissipate
and
there are no bright shining stars
to take its place.

 The vast blackness

intrudes
into our blank stares
and mindless thinking
leaving so many
wondering, questioning
if there is more
and if there is,
where … what? 

God is there.
Here.
Everywhere.
Ever present. 

If you are one with Him,
He is always with you.
Wherever you go,
wherever you are,
wherever you choices (good and bad) take you
and wherever life’s events lead you

When you abide with The Almighty One
of the whole universe,
He abides with you.
He lives as the Holy Spirit
within your heart.

Whatever is, He knows
Whatever was, He was there
Whatever will be, He watches and waits
His time is coming

Jesus waited.
Waited for the timing to be right.

We will know too when
we hear from God,
our Holy Father in Heaven
who will lead us ever closer to Him 

The emptiness we endure
will break wide open
We will be face to face
in the Lord’s Almighty Presence
There will be peace
Everlasting Peace

The Hope we have trusted in
The Love we have been shown
Jesus Is.

“I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” ~ John 8:12
