I live in a fallen world that has broken away
from God’s original intent
My sin has made my life difficult
Many obstacles abound and people disappoint
It is easy to make life about my wants, needs and feelings
And easy to forget each days blessings

Each new morning is a gift from God
So in graditude, like Moses I have,
a “tent of meeting” for solitary moments
Time set aside to listen for Your voice
Moments for spiritual conversation 
A place to count my blessings, not express my complaints

It is where I can hear the voice of my Beloved One
He speaks to me each morning
“Awake, see Me in the beauty of nature
Rise up from your worldliness
It is easy to live a life without my presence
Become spiritually alert and make your life in Me”

“Rise up towards the heavens
Above your desires, pursuits and aspirations”
I call you, “my love” (Song of Solomon 2:10)
“Come away from your selflshness and
your eyes, ears and heart of sin
Complaints ignore my grace, presence and promises”

“They question my faithfulness, goodness and love
Come home from your worldly exile
My Son, without any complaint died for you”
“I will raise you up and draw you near
The Holy Spirit will kindle the flame of love in your heart
Leave this life behind and come home to Me”
