WHERE MORTALS FEW HAVE TROD """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" WRITTEN BY S.C.MITCHELL OCTOBER 2014. O LORD - what is a man - that You should think of him ? - when You - who dwell within the realm of other-worldly things - that only those who Have the ears to hear and eyes to see - can comprehend - not of the dark Side - but of Light - where angels in Your glory dwell - as messengers and Warriors - against the evil hoardes of night - assisting those who choose To live for You - and all that appertains to right . O how I love You LORD... How can this mortal soul speak of such love - for this - the wounded Lamb Of God ? - who gave His all for His own sheep - when words are tainted so - and Cannot fully comprehend and tell - of all that fills my grateful heart - but yet - with Every fibre of my being - I can but truly say - there is no other love that fills My heart in such a way - as You - my LORD - as You - the only Shepherd of my heart - today . I yearn for courts - that are not earthly made or bound - that cross the chasms Of this Planet's breach - beyond the highest mountain's outstretched arms - and Deepest caverns of the ocean's reach - where mortals few have trod - and those Who have - with ever longing palates that can taste and see - the wonders - Still unchartered - in the minds and hearts of men - who know - that once Attained - can never be the same - in truth again . O LORD of Light - wherein this feeble frame - can only catch a glimpse of love's Full power - lest I should drown or burn - within such awesome gaze - forsake me Not - for there are times that all is hid within a veil of gloom and mist - as likened To a soul where all is lost - but - truth be truth - I know that this can never Be - as Thou - my loving God - is ever mindful - and forever Faithful - to such a one as me . O how I love You LORD - and always will - though this frail flesh may falter - and Digress - into a world of the mundane - and my own will - but - even then - I Know my deepest longing is to walk by faith - and choose the best - so keep Me in the shadow of Your wings - and never let me go - and grant me Eyes that see and ears that hear - and then my soul - that longs for Higher Courts - at last - will be at rest . """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" O what am I LORD - that You should think of me ? """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" So many times of late I find myself yearning for a deeper awareness of the presence of the LORD , and yet , I also tend to feel so inadequate ...but it doesn't stop me longing , and in so doing , it spills out in the words I write .
