Here: Five Minute Friday

Another week, another chance to write on a one-word prompt for only five minutes. We set timers, type quickly, and let it flow without criticism. Then, we link-up our posts so we can read others' posts and they read ours and we have a community that grows from one word each week.
Five Minute Friday.

Go!

Here, not there.
Well aware.
Omnipotence, He's everywhere.
He is here.

Always listening, always hearing
Peace He gives us, love endearing.
Storms may come, but then are clearing.
He is here.

In control though I am not.
All my battles He has fought.
Lessons learned that life has taught.
He is here.

For my children, He is here.
Never far but always near.
Lead them to their Shepherd, dear.
That is why you're here.

For His glory, for His fame.
Let us praise and raise His name.
Not to us, no great acclaim.
He is here.

Paper cups that pass away.
We are like a brilliant day.
Sunrise, sunset, then turn gray.

Still He is here.

Here I am, send me, I cry.
Trusting even in the "why?"
For us all, our Savior died.
But He is here.

Present is a passing gift.
What will I now make of it?
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not promised,
but always...
He.
Is.
Here.
