Please tell me ... Where?

Psalm 139:16 

16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.

 

Please

 

If you could tell me ... where have I been?

Long before my substance ... became visible to man.

Why can’t I remember ... what there I have seen?

Is the present now ... interwoven in “now & then”?

 

Where did I reside ... before my mom kissed me?

Where was my reality? Before a dream took me away

Before the temporal ... who quietly embraced me?

Who did I neglect ... and who then had to pay?

 

Past and present caught in one ... a preplanned purpose?

Not for us to understand ... as we wander in the dessert.

The day is never done somehow until this awkward hurdle,

we call the flesh is removed and we travel to His Presence.

 

He is now with us ... if we accept this fact

He will not linger ... if we grasp for His Hand.

He will guide us through ... as a matter of pact

if we trust Him with our self ... so in Him to stand.
