Flying -- a poem

Your love envelops me, holding me as I cry.

I have endured such heartache, but You have been there.

You see me, the whole me, knowing my mistakes and pain.


As I grow and hurt, You show me how to cope.

I feel your love as you hold me in your arms.

You tell me that it's going to be difficult...

Painful, as you mold me into Your creation.

You sing to me and quiet me in your love.

You say, "Trust me," and I said, "I do."

You throw me into the air,

I fly as I soar with the eagles,

Flying with the angels,

Hearing their singing.

Feeling the flap of their wings against my face.

I am an amazing creation, your creation.

You amaze me with Your love and peace.

Thank you for your love and patience, Dear Lord.
