Poem: Sealed with His Promise
The winds try to tear at the walls.
The lies scrape along the door.
But you stamp your name across my soul.
You wrap my heart in holy fire.
You seal my steps in mercy’s ink.
The world flashes false crowns of gold.
The voices shout for fleeting thrones.
But your Spirit binds me to your side.
Your mark holds steady through the noise.
Your breath sings deeper than the winds.
When doubt tries to rip at faith,
When fear knocks louder than joy,
You whisper the old promises again.
You press truth into tired veins.
You write forever on trembling hearts.
The days may forget who they serve.
The roads may turn without signs.
But your Spirit holds the map close.
Your seal holds tighter than fear.
Your name covers every broken place.
Today I trust the seal of your hands.
Today I walk beneath your brand of love.
You are the keeper of my breath.
You are the signer of my soul.
You are the promise written in light.
