Psalm of Adoration

This is my Psalm of adoration to God.
Inspired from Psalm 73:28.
In your love there is infinite embrace.
In your arms, a comforting warmth.
Your words give hope, you are my inspiration.
For I have seen and walked among those
who choose to reject your grace, deny your voice.
We walked a barren desert, thirsty, lost and void of purpose.
Yet you, my beloved, always waited just shortly away,
Arms open wide and ready to receive me.
And the longer I ran, dehydrated and dying
the longer I yearned for your comforting passion.
I returned to you so dry that the tears could not flow.
My parched lips, cracked and bleeding, could scarcely utter
words of apology. Yet there you stood, arms outstretched, smiling
for your child had come home.
How immense this love. How glorious your flawless voice.
Your shelter is safe and secure, your loving arms a fortress to my brokenness.
For I know the barren land, and all of its destruction.
But as for me, it is good to be near God.
