Uphold Carry Sustain Rescue

I am still memorizing and using Isaiah 46:3-4 in my morning quiet time. After using those words in synonym verses I changed over to use them in an antonym poem:
Make - Destroy
What is the opposite of "make"?
The opposite is fearsome to comtemplate.
To tear down, to take apart
It transmits despair unto my heart.
The true antithesis is destroy.
Have mercy, my Lord, to not employ.

Whether I craft a poem of some merit or not, each morning when I undertake this type of concentrated effort it takes me deeper into the concepts and allows me to wrestle with the meaning and emphasis. I find that I approach each morning with so much enthusiasm and anticipation working with these ideas in both word and image.
