Lord, you are the wind that fills the sails of my heart
Where did you go?
What did you want?
How can I next tell what you will do?
You speak to my mind, you speak to my heart
Outward flows from you, your love for me
Wherever you are, whatever you do, is love that comes from you
Whenever I am dry and wonder where you are and what you do,
I remember the times you were close.
I resign myself to being dry when you wish,
bowing before your choices
I know for certain you love me
You require faith and the strength of faith.
My heart may not be motivated without your spirit to say I love you, but I know I do
So I tell you that I love you,
You know I do.
My mind can see what you have created with beauty that reveals you,
most beautiful One.
I am nothing before your, my Father, but may your presence in me reflect your grace

I just posted a new poem titled "The Journey of a Redeemed Heart". It's currently still pending approval. It was strongly influenced by what you wrote here.

This talk was very helpful to show me what is possibly happening when i dont feel the loving presence of God.

Bottom line of talk: Its Gods goodness to push away false ideas of who He is and replacing these ideas with the true knowlege of who He is:
