Dear King....

Ever have those moments when life's flurry melts away,

 

and you realize

 

an emptiness so deep

 

it stops you in your footsteps

 

to wonder

 

why you're feeling so down and out of sorts

 

when moments ago you were laughing?

 

Then you recall how long it's been since you

 

connected with Him

 

Then an answer so swift and truth so sweet and a longing so strong

snuffs out the melancholy

 

drizzle

 

of forgetting

 

if even for an hour

 

what it's like to be with Him.....

 

 

I had that kind of moment today. So I wrote Him a letter......and, upon the tablet of my heart, through knee-mail...I felt His answer scripting across my soul....

 

Maybe it will minister to you, but mostly, I hope it causes your spirit heart to take pause, and the lungs of your soul to breathe deeply

 

of Him

 

and live again

 

in His presence

 

in unbroken communion.

 

I'll post the poem here:

Dear King

by Cheryl Wyatt October 15, 2007

Dear King,

It was bloody and brutal
and I cannot

imagine
you having to
die
without honor
so willingly.

 .      .        .       .      .

Dear Princess,

I was humbled and honored
and I could not

imagine
me having to
live
without you
for eternity.
