Gold dust on my hands, tears floating to the ground, my body surrenders, there is sight nor sound

Palms facing up, eye lids closed tight, gravity’s no more, I am losing the fight

Slowly I fall, the ground has beckoned, to the earth I collapse, in less than a second

I appear asleep, while fully aware, of the presence of God, as close as my hair

I can not move, I can only breathe, What in the world, has He done to me?

The fear of the Lord, grips my being, I am in awe and afraid, of the most high King

Then a gentle whisper, nuzzles my ear, the words speak peace and call me near

“Do what you wish!”, I hear my mouth say, “To you I surrender. To you I obey.”

It starts as a twitch, then I violently shake, my body is equal to, a 9.5 earthquake

It feels like electricity, dashing through my veins, I start to believe, I am going insane

But God has not left, for this is His hand, causing me to tremble, not allowing me to stand

I want Him to stop, I try to pray, but all that will come is, “Lord, have your way.”

Then He shows me a vision, great things foretold, I see my promises fulfilled, and the days I am old

I see angels and heaven, the room of His throne, I walk into glory, and in the presence I groan

It is all too great, I fall to my knees, I look up to find Jesus, giving me keys

From love to knowledge, and peace to wisdom, I hold in my hands, the keys to His kingdom

I return to the dirt, from that glorious place, I can not stop, the tears on my face

“Jesus, you are Lord!” I yell to the sky. Then His presence leaves, and He whispers goodbye.

The anchor is lifted, I can set sail, but I feel a bit, tired and frail

I sit there a while, hugging my knees, and I smile because, Heaven kissed me

Gold dust on my hands, I rise from the ground, Jesus is Lord, and in Him I am found.

Till the next chapter,
