Voice

27.03.2022 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Do you hear my voice
the call of love
the pull to your soul?
A chance
An opening
for your decision
for your destiny
for the dreams
and desires of your heart
for the dreams
and desires of my heart.

I will never leave you
I will go before you
I am beside you
I am behind you.

So do you hear my voice?

The call
to presence, passion, purpose
to celebrate my presence
my closeness and love for you,
To explode with passion
for who you are in me
To fulfil your purpose
to go find others
to be me to others
to transform
this world
with the kingdom of Heaven
here on Earth.

Will you hear my voice?

Starting Thoughts:
Do we hear the call of God, His voice or even try to listen? Walking hearing His voice in our daily life is not easy as we get so easily involved and distracted with what is going on around us.

Standing in a Crowd

28.03.2021 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Wholeness came
through the hole in time
the pivoting point in time
collisions of past, present and future
and the King who became human,
began thirty years
journey on Earth.

God:
Passion sending purpose
Love leading to suffering
sending the light
revealing the blood cost
knowing the loneliness of pain
bringing life out of hell
singing life out of death.

Servant:
on a donkey
destiny hidden in simplicity
deliverance hidden in sacrifice,
surrender freeing salvation
to all people through
the King of miracles
the King of creation,
Palms laid, palms raised
A carpet of Praises
a crowd of worship
recognising the Saviour,
The eternal work of God
made flesh
made to ride
made for betrayal
made for the joy
made for the passion
made to die
to change
everything.

Self:
In the crowd
we stand
praise or playing,
Living lives of
possibilities, potential
pain, power, passion.

In the crowd
we can survive, hide,
Or decide.

Starting Thoughts:
Where are we in the crowd? Just hiding behind the majority, safety in numbers? Willing to stand out and be different? Are we prepared to make a decision for our King?

Clear

13.04.2019 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Love the unfolding layers of Shrek's onion analogy - here is a reflection on the layers in me, in us, and of how God's love deepens us, reveals us, enjoys us.

In the purity
of my heart,
Cleansed by Christ,
unfolds my uniqueness
with evolving intimacy
revealing clarity,
As I action love
my awareness
of His passion
continually deepens.

Wild Dreams

07.10.2018 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Restore the dreams,
fly free
released passion
opened heart and mind
body dancing
to God's tune,
rhythms pulse
in your throat,
life sparks
light in your eyes
effervescence to your hopes
joy to your heart,
and you smile -
soul deep.

Starting Thoughts: How does the life and light of Christ change us? From the inside - out completely.

Heart in Hands

26.06.2018 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

Run your hands
through your hair,
every one counted,
For He knows
You intimately,
His heart
beats to yours
in time, beyond time
playing the most
Amazing love life song
just for you,
enveloped in this
empowering cascading
Forever love,
Passionate, innermost deep
Unfathomable yet simple
a Pure unadulterated touch
Dance wild
In His love,
Redeemed,
Set free,
Released
to be.

Life's Edges

22.09.2013 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word |Seeker Written by: W Grieve

Box trapped
Straitjacket message from hell
Walls surround,
Dark gnawing at
edges of life.

Whether I walk
the streets
Or few metres to cell bars
I am in prison,
Forever blackness,
Somehow worse, exposed
in sunlight or florescent tubes,
So dry, no tears only anger
So buried, no hope only pain,

I can't do broken alone,
Where do my thoughts leak?
Who else can know my thoughts?

Starting Thoughts: Sometimes the walls in life seem so bleak and closed in we are close to what we think prison might be like, but know this is really unreality. There are other choices.

The Passion

01.04.2012 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

The passion
One week
in history,
Time shortens itself
Focuses
on life
Living hope,
Death
Living hope,
Celebration
Living hope,
Struggles
Living hope,
Just seven days
changing
four seasons in one week,
Ending with
Life Power over death,
Fears of worst death
shattered with Pure light,
Death destroyed by invincible
courageous love.

Easter
One week in history
A thousand years collapsed to a day,
One week holding
eternal futures for you.

Easter the fiesta!
Christ's freedom.

Window

10.01.1983 Filed in: Poetry |Christian |Video |Spoken Word Written by: W Grieve

I sat staring
to the blackened sky,
Window framed
dark silhouette hills,
Out of touch
safe behind glass.

Bluebells and cornfields grew
shattering the bondage,
dark forces splintered
in confused chorus chaos
and sunlight strength
warmed day colours alive.

I no longer
wanted to be safe,
instead a desire
to rush out
hug the sunrise
kiss the golden touch,
Enjoy God's daily miracles.

Can we be a bit reckless, passionate in our worship of God?
