He Waits!

The breezy weather fails to keep me indoors.
I step out for a stroll behind my backyard.
Straight ahead of me, it is dark.
It is lonely.
Only my thoughts keep me company.

I slowly walk down the narrow path.
I am swallowed by the thick darkness after a little while.
I walk to nowhere. Nowhere down this road.
I have no destination in mind. Honestly, I stroll.

Out of the blue, an armor car meets me in the dark.
The many people in the car horrendously beckon on me.
“Come along!” They say.
I am truly terrified. Horrified! I am confused!

I make a U-turn to go back home.
Vampires! They are walking in my footsteps.
Quietly behind me.
I am hopeless. Helpless!
I do not know! No! I do not!
"I am traumatized!" undoubtedly, is an understatement.

Surprisingly but stridently,
Yet harmoniously, from far away,
I hear my name.
A melody so sweet! A melody so familiar!
Oh no! I am not hallucinating my dear friend. I wake up!
What a night! Oh! what a nightmare!

It is my boss calling my name.
Behind the sweet tune of the phone’s ring.
“Where are you?” He asks.
“Vampires! Vampires! I am being chased by vampires!” I reply.
“Take the best escape and come to work as early as you can.” He says.
He hangs up the phone.
I am confused! I am hopeless! Oh I am trying!

My memory promptly leaves dreamland.
I lay in my bed soaked in a pool of sweat!
Wondering!
It is a Friday morning! I have nowhere to be but at work!
And His reply swiftly takes me back!
Way back into time.

Oh, He waits on me today! He waits!
He gave me what it takes to escape.
Escape from any circumstance beyond me. He already did.
I am reminded!
Oh I am a little excited! Yes, I can escape no matter what!
“Thank you Boss!” My soul exclaims.

But I regret. I regret for making Him wait on me.
He breathed life into me once.
I possess all the strength and talents He gave me on that day.
Nevertheless I lay dormant, I lay dead!

Just like an artificial flower
I look real but there is no life, no fragrance, and no reality
Whatsoever!
My inability to use His blessings has rendered me sterile!
My laziness sends me to wonderland today.
And my timidity, it gives me no rescue.
I am but an absolute disappointment!

He waits oh yes, He waits!
With just a little blast from the past my dear friend,
I have no question on his waiting.
No whats, whens, whos, ifs or buts!
Now, I know He waits on me

He has already shared with me an indelible trait of his own.
He has given me His light.
Yes His light!
"The light of the world" He calls me.
"The salt of the earth" He calls me.
His "Peace that surpasses all understanding" He has given me.
His " Image" He has wonderfully and fearfully made me.
He has no dilemma waiting on me.
I have all it takes! Indeed, I do!

And I testify!

He waits! Oh yes He waits!
Yea though I have just five small stones and a sling in my hands,
More than David, He has empowered me to face any Goliath
Any Giant
Any Vampire!
Like Adam, He calls me His own even though I bit into the fruit of good and evil!
He waits!

When Samson set out to look for a wife
He met a lion
Just like He gave to Samson,
He has given me an a phenomenal strength that can rip apart a fierce lion
A marvelous strength that can flee vampires that tread my footprints
On a lonely road
If only I stretch a little more just like the woman who bled for twelve years
And touch the hem of His garment, His word will be made manifest.
He has me wholly covered in His wonder working blood!

Oh yes, He waits, My Savior waits! And HE waits on me. Oh! Oh! HE waits on me!
