Please Take Me Home Lord

image by Lightstock


It has been awhile since my last post. I have been working on some writings, but time has not been available to me to post them, due to school and studies. But tonight, I felt compelled to write this poem addressed to my Lord and Savior Jesus. It seems I talk to him more than anyone these days to guide me and to help me through my daily struggles. I would not have made it this far in my life without Him. Thank you Jesus for always being there for me when the fog enshrouded me with doubt, fear, hopelessness and tears.

Please Take Me Home Lord

The enemy despises me.
He hates me.
The enemy does not want me to be even present within Your great halls.
There is little comfort or compassion found within the enemy's halls,
only hateful penetrating eyes hidden behind masks
and ever changing chameleons’ visible only to Your eyes.
I yearn for Your company.
I yearn for Your friendship.
I yearn for Your kindness.
I yearn for Your love.
For there is none other,
none greater,
than You O’LORD.
Please take me home.
The enemy want's us to believe we are a hindrance to the people we love in this world.
The enemy wants our past sins to drag others down to the enemy’s gates.
The enemy wants our sins to keep others from blooming with Your glorious truth.
There are so many who are blind and innocent they do not see the enemy reaping about.
Please take me home.
For there is no other place I rather be than with You oh LORD
This world despairs me
The enemy attacks me silently
All seems hopeless without You LORD.
Please take me home.
For my home is not of this world,
my home is with You.
For you are the light that shines ever so brightly,
that dries my tears away.
You are my rock.
You are my inspiring hope.
You are the radiant truth.
You are my Savior.

Please take me home.
