There once was a
man who lay in his bed and couldn't fall asleep at night.
No matter what he
did, or thought in his head, nothing seemed quite right.
So as he thought and
wondered what could possibly keep him awake,
His heart stilled and his mind
silenced and he felt a gentle quake.
I want more.
And as his eyes opened wide his soul began
to breathe,
A gentle whisper in his ear:
"I know what I heard with those
simple three words,
But something's troubling me here.
However obvious
those words may seem,
Their message isn't clearly defined.
Because I know,
deep down in my soul…
The Voice that spoke wasn't mine."
"Who are
You," said the man whose heart had heard the breath divine.
"What is it that
You want more of," he asked with a tremor in his spine.
And as the moments
passed and his pulse amplified,
He heard a word that would never leave his
side.
Everything.
And as the man paused to
contemplate,
This unwavering echo in his ear.
A subtle sense of
bewilderment,
Crept in alongside fear.
"I know that the everything You
want,
Includes all of my life that You see.
But what I have never realized
til' now,
Is that You offer Your everything - to
me."
