The Apple Of His Eye
During my time as a single parent I found the loneliness and burden of doing it alone often overwhelming. During those vulnerable times it's easy to allow relationships we would normally not have to sneak into our lives. We want so much for the void to be filled. This poem is for all the single mums out there who are struggling to trust God as your husband and have allowed other men into your life. Though single parenting is difficult and lonely , it's a very precious time of coming to know God as husband.
I wrote this poem for a lady that was coming for morning tea. I had not met her as yet but I knew she was separated. As our morning unfolded it was clear that God had not been allowed into the secret place of her heart. She had been filling the void designed for God with other relationships. God wants us to commune with Him in the secret, vulnerable place in our heart. Don't be afraid to let God love you.
After our morning together, I gave her this poem.
You need to know the Fathers love.
His love is towards you.
He's planned your life,
Draw near to Him and He'll draw near to you.
Let Him touch your hurt,
And heal your pain.
You're the apple of His eye.
He's your husband now,
So begin to love.
His touch you can't deny.
"Don't let men in,
To the secret place,
Now occupied with Me.
My Spirit dwells within your heart.
You now belong to Me"
"Come away with me,
Your one true love.
I've loved you from the start.
I'm your Father now,
Just follow Me,
And I'll protect your heart"
