OPEN MY EYES TO SEE
“Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”” Matthew 4:8-9 NKJV
Am I really devoid of your presence?
Have I merely been in a relationship with myself all these years,
Or have I allowed my increasingly wild imagination to overlook you standing by the shores?
Why does it seem like you stay far away,
Or am I standing by the devil, fixating on an illusion of kingdom reality?
____
I refuse to bow to the antics of the devil,
Yet I stand on the same ground he has leveled,
Lusting over the glory I believe to be yours. I wait,
Refusing to leave me, you stay with me in this space,
While I look down, searching amongst the wrong place.
___
Open my eyes to see
That your presence is not a figment of my fantasy.
Open my eyes to see
That you are standing here with me.
Open my eyes to see
And lead me where I am meant to be.
