Common Senses Awake

by Stacey Mayers © 2022

Smell!
Turn, uncover and rediscover.
The adultery, harlotry and the pain.
Seek God and surrender.
His joy will sustain.
Fragrance of repentance is available, but the environment is reeking!

See!
The heart is made to be open.
Eyes ought to be fixed on the hills.
Royal and chosen.
See the goodness for it is in the written Will.
Evidence is in plain sight, but a lack of understanding is blinding.

Taste!
Feed on forgiveness.
Bread and living water.
Marinate in goodness,
At the sacred altar.
Sweet words, but bitter tongue.

Hear!
The sound of victory.
Rejoice in advance.
Sow and build; no need for manmade artillery.
Worship, march, play the tambourine and dance.
The trumpets have sounded, but deaf ears cannot hear the beautiful song.

Feel!
Redirection and correction,
Remove the shoes and tear down the walls.
Action words will steer the wanderer in the right direction.
Weep, rent the garments and stand up tall.
It feels like a curse but it's holy ground.

Smell, see, taste, hear, feel: spiritual common sense awake!
