Consider My Meditation
Often we barge into the holy Presence of the Lord,
Our excuse is that we are speaking to “Father-God.”
We show little regard for the LORD of Hosts,
We are too full of ourselves, we even boast!
Do we really know what it means to come before God?
He is the Creator, He is the Almighty, the great LORD!
Should we not learn how to present our prayer-petition?
Do we know that our prayers should reflect meditation?
Meditation is never rushed, the soul must be still,
The heart and mind ponder, as one climbs His holy hill.
There must be a stillness of the soul when prayer is made,
Meditative prayer is the true petition that may be laid.
The soul has much to unlearn from bad habits of the past,
Fervent faith cannot otherwise be sustained; it cannot last.
Only in quiet repose can the soul hear the tender voice of God,
We will grow deeper when we learn to meditate on the Lord.
