Poetic Discipline

Not sure why, but I am in the mood to post this morning. This often happens when I'm consistently having quiet time in the mornings. God reveals so many things to me sometimes that I feel like I can't possibly hold them in. Of course, now that I'm posting I can't decide what to share.....
Okay, I have been reading this verse for days now. Most of you are probably familiar with it, but I find myself reading it over and over each morning:

Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall. ~Psalm 55:22
Wow, even typing this moves me. In addition this morning I read:
Come to me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. ~Mt. 11:28-30

Okay, I am not a poetry buff, I can't quote or even probably remember a specific poet or poem that I've read or been moved by, but I increasingly appreciate or even adore poetry. This has been a growing interest for me over the past several months. I find poems to be an amazing form of expression and catch myself reading and thinking of them quite frequently.

God is the ultimate poet. Just reading these verses shifts my paradigm and leaves me changed. They may not seem to be what we traditionally consider poetry, but they evoke emotion and as I read them, the words roll off my tongue and into my heart.
