To Know God's Presence - by Triniti

    Hello all. This post is a poem that I wrote spontaneously. I wrote it after one of the times that I could feel God with me. I know that sounds weird, but He comes when I'm having my hardest moments. If I'm angry or sad, or I just feel like the world is out of sync, I'll feel a breeze. Not a strong one. Just a cool breeze in the middle of August, or inside a locked up house. Places that a breeze doesn't belong. No one else is affected. I pray to my LORD, I sing a song to Him, and I feel His gentleness and lovingness pick me up from my sorrow (or anger or mistrust). 

To Know God's Presence

I am often troubled,

Not very often glad,

But joy is always near

When I am feeling sad.

A madness is around,

 Indeed, I cannot bear

To hear the laughter now.

I pray that He is here.

Very shortly I feel

A breeze which passes me.

I know this wind-indeed-

Only God makes me free. 💕 

      Only God makes me free. Nothing else will lift me up from this state. Not thinking of the future, not thinking of the past, not reading my dad's blog. Nothing. Only Prayer and Scripture and the thought of God has ever released me from anger or sorrow. God is not in the fire, or the earthquake, or the strong wind. He is in the gentle breeze (1 Kings 19). We just need to listen for Him, and know the difference between a gentle breeze or whisper and our own thoughts. He will show Himself if we are willing to trust Him.
