Impatiently Waiting Poem by Mikienna Joi

Impatiently Waiting


Impatiently waiting? Patience is a virtue I am striving for, with very little success. I urgently experience my heart longing for you to grow and mold and conform to God's description of my soul mate. I await the time when you boldly determine to follow Christ no matter the consequence; whether it is loss of monetary substance, verbal crucifixion, or even the cost of your earthly life essence.
I long for your embrace and your words of love. I need your presence and your strength.
Your fears are for naught. The words of a dying people cannot faze us …when God is for us. What they think or feel or say will never be able to save or destroy us. When we are complete and bound by the "three fold cord"…bound By Jesus….we are in truth, complete. Not missing the approval of others. Together we fulfill all the emptiness left by indecision and wrong choices. Together we are one flesh, one mind, one accord, one desire, one goal, one focus, one decision, and one path, one calling. I anxiously pine for you to walk away from the corrupt path and follow the right one. I eagerly encourage you in my prayers to hear from the Lord, to answer His call to pick up your cross and follow Him. I joyously anticipate when your ears and eyes open with revelation to the beauty that waits for us when we truly join our bodies and souls, joined to serve our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Do you feel a calling to be a Pastor? Have you considered that we are meant to co-pastor? To Pastor a ministry as two twain joined as one flesh? That we are called to minister the Good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ together?
Do you feel as if your life is shattering and falling apart right now? Do you see your fears coming to life before your eyes? Have you started to realize that if you try to keep this life you currently have….that as long as you try to hang onto this life you have made for yourself….YOU WILL LOSE IT? Do you not see? I maintain my distance …at God's command. I maintain my silence so the Lord can show you. But I ache with a need to tell you, with a desire to protect you from what is to come, with a need to shield you from your blindness. But, I have to trust God. He knows you better than I, and knows what it will take to bring you to submission to His will.
