Remember me (The one I want to be) Poetry Devotional (Day 1 ) Psalm 49:3 

Psalm 49:3

My mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding.

Daily I come in the spirit of repentance 

Through  prayers and praises 

Hoping in that book of remembrance 

You remember me 

As the daughter of a great king 

Who gave all that she had even though it wasn’t much 

The one who walked by faith charity  and Your love

The one who failed epically

but rose up with humility 

From every trial  and tribulation learning not to repeat her folly 

Please remember me as the servant who served You  cheerfully 

Not grudgingly or out of necessity 

Not as a murmurer or murderer 

But as an encourager and nurturer 

Not as a backbiter 

But as prayer warrior 

A supporter 

Not as a complainer 

But as a problem solver 

A helper 

A teacher of good things 

Chaste sober, holy 

Discreet 

Not given to too much wine 

Who loved her husband, her parents 

Her children,

Submitting to the head she was given 

Finding satisfaction 

In her role as a godly woman 

And praying daily to be forgiven 

From all ignorant , presumptous, sin

Praying none is ever done with intent 

While also forgiving those who hurt me with ease

The one who is quick to listen and slow to speak 

The one who delighted in your laws 

And  your Commandments she did keep

And fed and clothed her enemies 

Growing in the areas I am weak

And the areas I am strong strengthening

Helping the widow, orphans poor and elderly

Not being Idle, 

But working zealously

To build up the kingdom of heaven 

And be a light to who I see 

Because I want to be 

The one who placed all  her trust in you 

Especially when she didn’t know what to do 

The one who feared you and only you 

Reverently and terribly 

The one who remembered the law of Moses the statutes and judgments 

And like treasure she held on to them 

The one that walked through the fire asking to be purified asking to be refined knowing that you wouldn’t leave her side 

The one praying to be purged knowing it will hurt 

but knowing the pain is worth the gain in your son’s name 

The one who did pray

Before anything she did say

Keeping the intrusive thoughts at bay 

Because in Your word , her heart  did stay 

And on her tongue was the law of truth 

And kindness 

And the Meditation of her heart poured out understanding

Walking in Your peace and goodness 

Lighting up the darkness 

With the gifts she posseses 

With every poem 

Every psalm 

Every word I have written 

Every talent You give to me 

Let me glorify You with them 

Not burrying them 

But use them to slay the demons 

And comfort Your Beloveds 

Oh Father please 

Be pleased with me 

And if You aren’t please

Be honest with me 

Show me my iniquity 

Through You Son 

And with The Holy Spirit 

Refine me 

Purify me 

I know what I am asking 

The narrow way  is not for the weak 

I also know what will happen 

If I stay unclean 

Ahba, Only You know if I am ready 

But I am willing 

To be all that You have called me to be

So to You I bring ALL OF ME

HOLDING NOTHING BACK FROM THEE

My tithe and my offering 

The very best of me 

With Your word cutting off the worst of me 

So I can be through Christ 

A perfect daily offering 

For in You is my safety

My help 

My protection 

My provision 

You will pour out the blessing 

So big , I will not have room enough in my heart to receive it

And I know this because I am asking for this 

I am preparing for this 

By first coming to You in the spirit of repentance 

Through my prayers and praises 

For Israel has returned unto You Father 

Our name , our history

All that You have done for our ancestors 

All that You have done for us 

We have remembered 

One by one we are claiming our identities 

And these generational curses we are breaking 

As we submit To You, our great King

Praying, 

You will remember us 

Faithfully
