Constancy
So, reason with me.
What is constant?
What does not change?
It is not that I do not know the answers to my own questions.
It is not that I am unwilling to walk through the inconstancies of my life.
They are to be expected!
Still . . .
I am a creature that resists change.
With every great change, I must always reorient myself. It's my continual, momentous, and spiritual rebooting!
I must always force myself to remember so many things that are more true than my feelings.
I do it, not naturally; yet, by the grace of God, I do it deliberately.
Truly, there is only One who is constant. I will not forget.
Him.
~~~~~~~~~
When I wake, when I sleep
I hear whispers that seek to reach me
My constant One
When I dance, when I weep
Where I run, You are with me
(chorus)
Everyday, every night
After death in this life
You are constantly keeping
In my joy, in my strife
When I taste my desires
I am caught in your eyes holding me
My constant One
When I feast on the words
That You speak, they will feed my hunger
My constant one
Where I lay, when I rest
I will say that I love you
(chorus)
(bridge)
I want to kiss the mouth that soothes me
When the smile has vanished from my face
When I sparkle in the mist that clouds me
Be sure that I am lost in You
Lost without a trace
My constant One
(chorus)

Oh my dear, always remember that with change comes learning, growing and maybe even a treasure that you didn't know existed.
