A mind full
of consternation and exasperation
over things
I cannot change
if only it
could be grasped; my mind turnéd sane
yet my
sanity totters; it’s almost deranged...
this blur of
thought is only here to defer
the truth is
revealed in my reluctant will
that
secretly waits for a different sense to come in
one of
peace, quiet, and still
The will
comes with peace
though peace
won’t come without the will
and no will
without the inner peace
therefore I
will meditate in my heart and be still
For what
precedes that line
but a
command for the will not the whim
a simple
committal and a gaze be set
to Him who
says "tremble and do not sin”
Tremble and do not sin;
Meditate in your heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah
Psalm 4:4
