SHE BAPTIZES ME

She Baptizes Me

 

She brings me to her
as gentle as a mother to a child
takes me in her arms
and she rocks me
She holds me close
with my head nestled in her chest
She begins to pray for me
and asks me to join
I listened to her soft whisper...
offering an even softer amen...
'every good thing I want for you
I release..
from you, Father,
to my love.
Use my hands Father
to fill this body
this heart.
I need her
and I can feel her'
She tells me
'retreat
to this place often
to renew your strength
to find the love that always remains,
that will never change'
She tells me that we create
what we want
passion
love
hope
forgiveness
answers.
And, in that moment,
I had them all
as she held me
and we held on to our love.

She laid her hands on my worries
and they disappeared
She spoke against my doubt
and how we would fulfill each other's dreams
through the love we shared,
joined together as one mind
She baptized me
in her love
again..
and in that quietness
we
prayed..

He renewed our love
