Our lives are but for a moment, the journey begins with just a breath; breathe deeply. We enter the world, depending on others to help guide us. We don’t worry about tomorrow, we’re still trying to trust in our today. We’re trying not to fall, until we’ve learned how to steady our hearts; for the journey before us. It’s one day at a time, with one foot in front of the other; baby steps, it all begins with one. We start to grow in stature, not loosing sight; that you still need to have the strength, of character. To help navigate the journey; life.
The journey will take us from place to place, as we learn how to thrive moment by moment. Cherishing, relishing; the precious moment we get. The journey will excite your soul, let it take your heart higher and higher. The height of the journey; will be the journey into the depth of the soul. The journey is sure to challenge your heart. You the strength within; slay your Goliath. Don’t let that obstacle stand in your way, stay focused on the journey; the long and winding road. Be bold, courageous; then go overcome.
Stretch your faith, as far as the east is from the west; the potentials are truly endless. Do you have the faith, it begins with believing. Your life is a story; when one page closes, another chapter begins. Fill your heart with love, add to it your passion; but don’t forget the joy. Seek peace, but pursue virtue. Never give up, don’t ever lose hope. Stay the course, don’t stop until you’ve finished the journey. Someone might be following the light, the light shining through your life; the journey!
Within the silence, that was my favorite hiding place. Within the valley of the shadows I walked, but I didn’t fear the shadows; they were silent friends, reflections of love. But relentless was a love, a reckless kind of love; that kept chasing after my heart. This love was so reckless when it moved… my heart, that even the shadows moved; away from my heart. There was no shadow of a doubt, to the recklessness of this love.
It was just whispers of love, so small; the stillness was my heart. Before my heart could even speak a word, this love whispered into my heart; I Love You… melt heart. Who spoke to my heart, my soul cried out? But before I could even take a breath, before I could learn how to breathe in this love. My soul was so overwhelmed, when the breath of this love moved throughout my heart; right within the midst of the shadows. The tears ran, but this love wouldn’t relent. This love fought to be my heart; the struggle was real, but never for my soul.
This love was so so reckless, this love wanted my heart. No mountains stood in the way, this love recklessly kicked down the walls; my heart became exposed. This love chased away the shadows; while overwhelming my heart, and has since loved me with a never-ending love. This is the reckless love of God, chasing after my heart. Oh God, stop… chasing!
Your love is overwhelming, my love will be never-ending. Your love makes my heart want to become reckless, and relentlessly chase after Your heart. No mountain will stand in the way, my love will recklessly kick down the walls; just so my heart can be forever exposed. God Your love has been so so kind, my heart is so overwhelmed. I never could have imagined, that my heart would ever become this way; Reckless!
The world puts a statute of limitation, when someone commits a crime. But no one can ever put limitations, on what I would do for Your love. A crime of passion, that’s what my heart committed. The day I took Your love, and locked it within my soul. But years later, my heart has realized, that it’s time to confess; that this love is truly special. This love is making my heart do the unthinkable; expose the passion locked deep within.
Sure, this might seem a bit perplexing to the untrained heart, but the time has truly come. To tell the world, that there’s no statute of limitation, for the passion locked within a heart. Oh, don’t get this twisted, don’t ever say Despicable Me. You too would do the same thing, if the desires within; was kept under lock and key. The time has come, to step out of the shadows, and into the court of public opinion. I’m ready to let them judge my heart, my heart has already been exposed. My confession are all being noted, through the words within this love story.
I will just throw my heart on the mercy of love, and let this love have its way within my soul. Throw the book of love at my heart, it will be read cover to cover. Lock up my heart within this love, throw away the key; my heart is already free, bound up within this love. There’s no statute of limitation on a crime of passion; love the stolen moments. My heart will forever relish the moment; when my heart was locked away, forever within this love.
Many have stolen hearts in the name of love, but how much of them; are willing to stand true for what they believe in? I’m not a special case, my heart is just willing to do life; love was meant to be a lifetime commitment. The question is this; how about you, are you willing to commit to love? The true crime would be to love, but forever keep the passion locked up forever… inside!
When you find yourself lost within the darkness, and you can’t see your way through; love will lead the way.
When tears fill your eyes, and you can’t even see past the rain. Let love pour into your heart; love’s standing by.
When you can’t find the strength to get up, stay where you are. Just stand on this courage, you’re not alone; love’s standing by.
When the sun shines bright, but you still can’t seem to see past the darkness; be still and know. The light of love can still out shine the darkness; love’s standing by.
When I look through the fog of life, the love God is all I see; standing, waiting for you. Don’t let despair be your guide, don’t ever lose hope, keep the faith; you’re truly not alone. Look up, see the love through the rain. Stand with courage, for the light has come. God’s love knows your heart, His love is standing by; let His love, be there for you!
Everyday I try my best, to have Face time with the Book; but time after time, I end up putting the cart before the horse. Daily my heart needs to get vertical, to send a clear message; an Instagram, to Him who is able. The steps of a good man are ordered; to him who delights, in His ways. So therefore why do I feel that it’s even about; MySpace, when I said that He has, My Heart? What I truly need to do, is to just be still, and know that He is… everything.
There’s a Twitter hear within my heart; small, still, but speaks life into my soul. Only if my heart is truly ready, only if my heart is forever willing, to be used; Here I Am… use me. Heart, don’t be discouraged by what you see, find comfort; in God’s word. Search through the scriptures. The Spirit doesn’t need Google + nothing, minus nothing. To know what a heart wants, or what the heart needs. Study to show yourself approved; a workman, who needs not be ashamed. Meditate day and night, and never depart from the truth. Download the word into your heart, the Text is your weapon; let it guard your heart and mind.
Become a Blogger; check. Get LinkedIn; then tell the world of His goodness. God is love, and Love; that’s God… also. Don’t get sucked into YouTube; not everything you see and hear, is everything you need to hear and see. Things you find Online, may tickle your fancy; be careful. The images can make you LOL, but when you see something you can’t unsee; the struggle to heal a broken heart, that becomes your reality.
My beloved, when you were a babe… Christian, you felt so Antisocial. But my child, it was in those very moments, when the Text I sent, gave you comfort; because you dwelt in MySpace. Your Face was always in my Book, you would Google throughout; because you wanted to learn all about my heart. You are my beloved, the one I knew before time began. I placed you here for my purpose, I put you here; for a time such as this.
My beloved, go ahead; get LinkedIn, with Facebook or YouTube. Post your blog, send an Instagram message; when that all fails to get you connected. Text, G.O.D; my love will be waiting to bless you. My presence forever hovers, my love always delivers; get connected, with My heart. Seek Me while I may be found, but know this; you will always find me, in your heart!
B4 You, I used to keep my thoughts hidden, shared them with only my heart. A keeper of secrets, my own; dear diary, but that was B4 You. So, would I have been considered crazy. If I told everyone, that my heart could hear a love, taste a love, felt like I could touch this love; even though my heart didn’t even know love?” Crazy isn’t it, maybe they would have thought; that I was a little bit touched? I really thought I knew love, but yet, the only love that truly felt real, was my own; B4 You!
Sure, there was a day, when I believed; that I could make it on my own, but that was B4 You. Your love took me by the heart, and has never let go. Your love touched my heart, but took hold of my soul. Now my heart is in a better place, because of Your love; I never want to put another love; B4 You!
B4 You my heart just sat alone within the darkness. Seeking hope, but still just learning to stumble; through the darkness. But then Your love smiled, oh Your love truly shined. Now with Your love moves within my heart; the dark within the night, become the light that governs my day. Your love shows Your heart, but the real question is this. Have I learned how to touch Your heart, or do I still think; Your love is out of reach? I didn’t even know love; B4 You!
B4 You my heart felt broken, how does Your love even have the strength; to keep my heart from falling… apart? 2B4 Your heart, is 2B4 living for Your love; day after day. Every day I experience an outpouring of Your love, but I still need to go even deeper; into Your heart. All things are now possible, but not; B4 You!
Rest your heart within my love, don’t worry if I seem lost for words; your love leaves me speechless, but my heart has so much to say.
Rest your love within my arms, whenever you need to feel my embrace. Come into my arms, let your heart melt within the warmth of my embrace.
Rest your head on my shoulder, whenever you’re tired, or just have a weary heart. Let my love be head and shoulders above; all that your heart will ever need, or want.
Rest your face upon my chest, let it forever soothe your soul. Let my beating heart be your comfort zone, it will forever say; I love you.
Rest your feet within my lap, whenever you just can’t take another step. Let me rub your feet, let my love ease your mind, and kiss away the pain. For I’m the one; that has your love; running throughout my heart endlessly.
Rest within my love, there you’ll see that you mean the world to me. Let my heart be the place, where your love can undeniably call; home sweet home. Rest; within my love!
When it feels like your faith is gone, find your strength within the courage; faith can move mountains, rise up!
You may feel broken, but it will never be to pieces. Though tears on your pillow, be unafraid of the darkness; rise like the day!
The silence may be deafening, breathe; there’s beauty within the silence, rise up!
When your heart feels overwhelmed by what you see. Let your heart rise higher than the waves; with hope, rise up!
Rise up, rise up on a prayer, rise up a thousand times; just rise up!
Now rest, let your heart breathe in His love. Let His love rise up within your heart, let His love breathe new life within. Jesus’ love has risen; Grace is ours today, rise up!
