ALMOST... But Not Really

Word received: Gerri Merrick ~ December 26, 2015

"My Creation has always brought questions, delight, amazement...and even frustration to mankind.

How can there be such varieties in all the earth? 

Where did the ideas of the designs spring from...?

What is man in this endless procession of Beauty and Terror?

I AM...that  I AM!

You think that you understand and even know Me!

You spend time thinking, meditating, hoping, debating...

And telling others the simple unraveling of these mysteries...

They stand in awe of your knowledge and what you seem to know...

ALMOST...But Not Really...

My Ways are truly higher than your ways.

My Thoughts are far above your reasonings...

My Plan is far beyond the sighs of your dreams... 

My Unfoldings and Revelations must be given in "snips, sips and glimpses"

ALMOST...But Not Really...

Is this revealed to bring frustration and defeat?

Do I say this to bring you low and deflated?

Does the security in your heart tremble?

Does the Faith and Knowledge of Me take unsteady flight?

ALMOST...But Not Really...

My desire as Your Creator and Your Everything...

Is to give glimpses of the Majesty and Wonder...

But never allow you to become complacent...

This causes one to become "lukewarm" and also

live as a tired bored old friend or a spoiled rowdy child.

ALMOST...But Not Really...

The surprises, wonder, respect, and commitment...

Then drains away into a dull, average life of faith...

Never take your GOD for granted!

Never think you have everything figured out!

ALMOST...But Not Really...

Joy, Peace, Faith, Trust and Wonder...

Can be joined to Your heart with ME!

And can you keep growing and going and drawing near?

Yes...Come with Your radiant Faith knowing ME!

My Child...My Child...

ALMOST...But Not Really........."

Psalm 40:1-5King James Version (KJV)

40 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

² He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
³ And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
⁴ Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
⁵ Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
