SEVEN – Perhaps
the Best Yet! My Favorite Number!
Seven becomes a
very special number that triumphs over the number six
In the cross
fire of light rays over dark shadows.
Chariots on the
seventh day into creation strike through clouds that part the sky.
He answers with
sympathy beyond understanding with our tears we shed.
In a majestic
seven, all things created beyond a fictional brief bang.
More like a snap
of the fingers as paintings unfold God breaths
Unbelievable blessings
through the ribs of man.
All of a sudden
the only response man can whisper to himself, “Whoa.”
With white flags
surrendered in the sudden stop of heart beats with crosses lifted up,
God delivered
with company for future families to be conceived.
I seek meaning
beyond country star’s labels, fame, awards, and image.
Who is this
fascinating person I have yet to hold hands with,
Who I have yet
to walk through Parthenon’s park,
Who I have yet
to pray, worship, and honor God’s image in?
For seven days
is not long enough for this journey of shared lives.
I lift this
dream up. I lift this request up. I lift this message to Him.
God is faithful.
He is worthy of our attention and our affections.
In seven days he
defeated the Enemy to save and create
What in future
time a Savior’s price would pay.
The words I wish
to express limit the power of my thanks.
All I can do is
lift hands up high beyond my tipped toes and hands raised in praise.
I cannot win this
fight for dreams without the sake of my own Savior’s strength.
I no longer only
focus on you. I focus on Him.
This is who I
am. This is who we could be.
Beyond the
sacred number of seven,
Let’s make an
adventure. Let’s see what miracles lay ahead
Because our
price is paid through the grace of a risen resurrection.
Life lives in
the truth of seven days
In the name that
for the rest of my life I have chosen to praise.
With another I
would like to share my journey together.
Then as it is
life will present itself as wonderfully amazing!
