CAPTIVATED
"When you call on me, when you come and pray to me, I'll listen. When you come looking for me, you'll find me. Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else, I'll make sure you won't be disappointed." God's Decree.
Jeremiah 29:12-14
Finding myself
I want to discover
Still points,
To be present in those spaces
Not by duty or doing
But being.
Beyond the narrative
Of scarcity and fear,
The narrowing of a world
Governed by threat and anxiety,
I want to find
Myself, in you,
God beyond borders.
To be captivated
And unafraid,
Found and free,
Named and known,
To be shaped by you,
I want to be at home
In my life,
Here and now,
Undaunted by uncertainty
And my own not knowing;
To live and love fully,
Centred and trusting
In you, in whom grace abounds.
Chris Matthews
