Holy

A poem

You’re too Holy for me, My King. 
How can I please You?
You’re too Holy for me, Jesus.
How can I please You?
Take my heart right now. 
Take my mind and 
all of my crowns. 
I am not my own. 
I don’t want to be.
I don’t want to breathe—without You.
I don’t want to see—without You.
I don’t want to feel—without You.

Let Your glory burn bright 
like a torch in the night.
Let me chase after
Your warmth.
I want nothing more. 
You are all I long for.
You’re too beautiful for me, My King.
You’re too gentle to me,
all I can do is sing. 
Holy are You. 
Oh, I pour my all
on Your feet. 
Every want, every lie—
And I cast it down
with my pride.

I can’t breathe—without You.
I can’t be alive—without You.
I desire Your Presence
to live in me.
Oh, let my worship
burn like incense
and please You…
My King.

Foundation Scripture:

Give to the Lord the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come into His courts. Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! Tremble before Him, all the earth.

Psalm 96:8-9 NKJV

Personal Reflection:

Today I am celebrating 100 published Substack posts! And as of March 8th, I’m also celebrating 2 years of being on Substack :)

But how can I celebrate, without awknowledging the King of Kings? I would not be where I am today if it was not for Jesus and His goodness. So, truly, I give Him all of the glory and the praise for this accomplishment! I give Jesus Christ the glory for both who I am today and for the writer I have become.

I do not know where my writing journey will take me next, but I trust the Author and Finisher of my faith. All I seek to do with my writing is give God the glory in whatever way He desires. Because I am so blessed and thankful to have Him in my life ❤️ But I am so excited to do more and more writing with Jesus!!!

Now, I do want to thank all of my subscribers for joining me in my writing journey. Your support means the world to me and gives me much inspiration. Thank you for reading my posts, sharing them, and leaving sweet comments. You all are amazing, and I am so thankful for you!

May God bless you abundantly in the way you have blessed me ❤️
