Today is share your heart Tuesday, and my heart is so full I can't seem to sort out the correct words or make it all make sense. God is doing amazing things, but then, he always does!
In honor of my Grandfather, who is a silly and also amazing poet, here is what my heart could find to share with you.
Stand Still, Stand Still

Stand still, stand still, and thou shalt see
How God can work the “impossible” for thee.”
This the advice that was given to me
As I hurried on my way.“Stand still, stand still”, was what was said,
An invitation to rest my head,
But I was busy leading instead of being led;
I had no time that day.“Stand still, stand still, and thou shalt hear
Music for thy heart of a love so dear;
Of perfect love that casts our fear.
It's free, there's no need to pay.”“Stand still, stand still, and thou shalt see
How God can work the “impossible” for thee.”
This the advice again given to me,
And I knew not what to say.“Stand still, stand still, say nothing at all,
Just revel in my love” was the Father's call.
“Let me, through my love, be thy all in all.”
I accepted. It was here I'd stay.And here I've remained since that first day.
Here I've had rest from my weary way.
Here I've found love without fear night or day,
Just standing still while He works
the “impossible”
for me.
What is God doing for you today, sweet friend? Is he asking you to “be still”? To trust Him more? To let him handle something? To not fear the outcome of a situation beyond your control? Will you revel in his love today?
