too busy, too bored.

too busy in life?
too busy and bored...

looking for treasures
laid up and stored.

looking in corners
looking inside

for things untainted
for things i may hide.

wanting more reason
wanting more time

wanting to live life
yet wanting sublime.

to live for the pleasure
or live for the pain

to seek more than knowledge
to grow more insane!

running in circles
or living a lie?

what makes us grow
and not wonder and strive.

a lot more is waiting
its not hidden away

but laid up and stored
in its place it will stay.

awaiting our presence
awaiting our all

to be with Him always
and ever enthralled.

surrounded in bounty
encovered in beauty

enslaved by His love
and freed in His safety.

yes, that's what awaits
with i'm busy and bored

awaits for me there
with a wide open door.

i'm looking to that now
looking long hard and deep

letting it drive me
in my heart, let it seep.

focused on this One
i can go on today

knowing my ultimate
goal in this stay.

purpose for all and
purpose forever

please help me remember
forgetting it never.

and this will become
my daily abounding

of joy from within
an outflowing, astounding.

oh flow sweet joy, flow
and never retreat

for in Thine sweet heavens
oh Glory, You seat.

my eyes are on You
and Your eyes are on me

and all that is waiting
is waiting with Thee.

amen.
