I Am standing, suffering self-contained.
Perpendicular to mankind’s reason;
Gazing over the vast expanse of time;
My vengeance is self- constrained!
Directing each and every season;
Toward the right conclusion of time;
In spite of the evil I left unrestrained!
Reclaiming all that I lost to treason;
Limit it to time, time, and half a time!
I leave My holy righteousness ingrained,
In children’s hearts, Spirit infusion!
Freeing them all from the prison of time;
Until Death’s sting I have fully contained;
Ending forever the universal confusion,
When by man Death began marking time;
Dispelling every deadly, strong delusion!
Of mortal human gods unrestrained;
Honor the One standing outside of time!
Omnipotent, perpendicular to our reason,
Jesus’ shed blood cleansing all sin stained!
God’s benevolent grace, saving age in time;
By My right arm! Defy age of human reason!
I Am standing, suffering self-contained.
Because He is strong we can be weak, because we are week, then we are strong – from His pain He gives us strength. Beautiful Savior! I have a tin ear with poetry, but I may beginning to catch the rhythm – maybe –

My grandmother was a poet and she raised me on poetry. It is my native language.:0) We think a lot about our suffering but how often do we consider the pain of God’s long-suffering? Still, He loves us and is mighty to save!

I often think about the amount of pain the church puts Him through – I put Him through. I think deeply about that and it reminds me of so much! It takes my thoughts off in a myriad of directions at once – all leading back to being on my knees in front of Him again asking forgiveness for my selfishness that I too often try to minimize. To be forgiven and have a guilty conscience and feel guilty for having a guilty conscience when He has done everything to take my guilt away! O wretched man that I am, who will save me from this body of death! Thank God for Jesus Christ!
