Let it be ...
2 Thessalonians 1:11-12
11 And in this regard we pray for you always, that our God will make you worthy of His calling and fulfill by His power your every desire for goodness and every work of faith, 12 that The Name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to The Grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
One Never Knows
Going to bed feeling tired
Ready for a rest of a lifetime
The body has given up most energy
In the busyness of the day
Running out of fire
Of the mental and the grime*
That takes environment’s synergy*
To an oft sung refrain
Moving in a dimension
Set aside for all that are sleeping
Body and mind unaware
Where the spirit is residing
But suddenly there is tension
As a stomach ache is creeping
As sweat then in layers
Pours out the pores confiding
That rest has no guarantee
And the body its own dimension
One moment all feels good
And the next day it falls apart
In search then for a remedy
To release all that tension
And that discomfort’s mood
Does not overtake the heart
A sudden quick whisper
To the Maker of it all
It seems that even flesh obeys
To the longings of His Heart
Gain and its mischief
Seems to disappear after all
And put dark thoughts away
To give me a new start
A little cup of milk
Hot and prepared for me
Helps to sort the answer
Of a stomach in despair
Like a shirt of silk
Smooth as it can be
My body rests in senses
That the Lord is more than fair
