the Dance, a kyrielle by Regina McIntosh dancing in the wind, a stillness rushing thoughts, tis’ mental illness? breaking through the peace in soft light gusts pause over the ghostly night songs awash with flowing feelings the hand of God, posing healings amazing love makes it alright gusts pause over the ghostly night trembling gusts of wonder and hope rustling over hearts so they’ll cope this music will surely excite gusts pause over the ghostly night nature’s soundless beauty unfolds gentle flowers in shyest golds joyful splashes as the stars write gusts pause over the ghostly night only our Creator can know the wonders continue to glow poetry heals the heart’s lone fight gusts pause over the ghostly night remember the stars fading sigh only God knows the when and why forests ache, the trees such a sight! gusts pause over the ghostly night my soul trembles with the suspense it seems to have such a sixth sense sometimes falling down, but not quite gusts pause over the ghostly night dancing in the wind, a stillness rushing thoughts, tis’ mental illness? breaking through the peace in soft light gusts pause over the ghostly night

You’re Here by Regina McIntosh Joshua 1:9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. You aren’t a distant God, faraway from my heart and soul from the moments when I know You’re beside me, in every struggle You’re here to guide me, through each storm You’re the light when darkness tries to overcome You aren’t a distant dream, cold and unfriendly You’re love, covering my spirit rising up within me whispering peace to my chaos pouring out faith into my fear reawakening assurance that You’re here and YOU hear… You aren’t a detached God, One who is unapproachable NO – You’re welcoming and kind gracious and filled with gentle plans for this heart who is believing Your love offers real freedom Your love is the reason I keep on believing I can make it through the pain I can see the sunshine through the rain I can know You in the way that You planned You aren’t withdrawn, aloof You show me the meaning of truth You guide me through each worry and fear You abide with me, an answer to my prayers when I can’t see the way all I need to do is pray and come what may You’re always there and You will always stay the most beautiful grace, I offer all my praise You completely amaze…. So with my heart, I PRAISE and P R A I S E When the stillness stirs my spirit after the rain falls, gentling a breath of praise from nature’s song coloring the moments in light and love… don’t leave me, precious Savior never leave me You know, You see in me someone I hope to be someone who will forever believe as long as I’m with You I’m loved and free, I’m filled with joy that prepares me to face whatever I need to face, oh, yes – I seek You in every grace I seek You, Your sweet spirit’s embrace When the shadows surround me, breathing, hushed, enveloping me in the music, the notes prayers for this… the love that completes the love that believes the love that always sees the love that agrees the love that brings me through the darkness, through the doubts through the fears and regrets through the struggles and the pain through whatever comes – everything When the tears fall down and I’m left without a prayer… I pray and pray and pray some more until I hear You say… in Your gentle way, just listen to the truths poured from my Word the victory the beautiful comes from just hearing what He is saying His love is still paving the way through the gardens of weariness, past the pains and regrets, through the troubles that disregard my faith, my heart, my soul leaving me at war with a world too strong to face on my own – He is there and I can never go wrong by hearing His voice and making that choice to give Him my heart, all that I am I owe to this man, this friend this Savior of my soul, the Light that always burns the Love that forever reminds me with Him, I’m never alone with Him, I always have a home with HIM, all doubt is gone with HIM, I’m no longer lost with HIM, despite what it cost… I know the love that flowed from that cross!
