The Lord's gaze
10.15.05 (7:22 am) [edit]Jesus,
Look at my anger
see my rage
strong, demanding,
seeking someone to persecute;
violent images,
emotions erupting
like lava;
burning everything in it path,
without thought,
only mind pictures,
vivid, colorful
coming from deep within.
Jesus,
let your light
penetrate my heart,
bringing everything out,
for all of heaven to see,
my poverty, my struggle,
and pain.
Let your love
sooth my anger and rage
teach me not to fear your gaze,
that will heal and sooth,
the burning rage, turmoil, and pain,
that is a torment to me
amen
