A Friday Story; A New beginning!
You thought your soul was tied up tight, but the heart… came undone; tripped up, by the road called life. A soul entering a race, Humanity; in the beginning… life, seemed like every step would make your heart a winner. Even though the finish line, was still unclear. So many hearts are looking, trying to find purpose; but not always seeking… truth. Every day, a new beginning. The evening passes, the morning comes; another day… to let your heart shine. As we run this race, we tend to bump into obstacles. Sometimes a reflection, the light you hoped to be. Life now half-done, and the journey seems barely started. The feeling, is defeated. Too many wrong turns, dreams unfulfilled. You dig in, but fatigue starts to set in; frustration, the unforeseen potholes. Your beloved race, telling you to give up. Avoid the pending doom, join the unaccomplished. Your heart doesn’t belong, your worth is incomplete. That’s an absolute lie, coming from the pit… of a cold cold heart!
A heart coming completely undone, lashing out; to cover up brokenness. Finding strength in brokenness, might seem like just a broken record. Even a scratch-in… the surface, can produce a sound. The love for, that resonates within. We live in a broken world, but broken, does not mean hopeless. Brokenness can resonate beauty, when it becomes what gave you your strength. What’s revealed, unbelievable strength, through brokenness. When the human race, tries to tear you down; brokenness, what builds you up… even stronger. Broken, will never mean defeated; if you don’t let it. If you can’t run, then walk. If can’t walk, then just crawl. If you don’t want to crawl, then just rest. Until your heart finds new strength, your second wind; to rise again. Brokenness is not the end, hope found; a new beginning!
You don’t have to know, what you will choose tomorrow. Just the choice, your heart can live with… today; to secure your soul a future. A heart may believe, to know true beauty. But if the understanding doesn’t transform, how to see beyond sight. Brokenness, seen only in the now; never as beauty becoming. Believing begins within, a belief that; change is being made. How a heart finds strength, the soul knows beauty; even in a broken place. A soul at peace, a heart knowing Amazing; in gracefully broken. So many souls, are tripped up trying to become first… by their own heart. We all know how to run in the race, it’s the walk that’s the most challenging. Why, sometimes we just need; to start again… with a crawl. Brokenness finds, just don’t let it define. Finish the race strong, by choosing what steps; your heart needs to take. It’s about your own personal walk, and every day; A New Beginning!

The Agreement!
My soul is in agreement, but some days; my heart tends to colors, a bit outside the lines. Love is the portrait, the picture not yet finished; but the story being told. My heart and soul, have discussed the terms. Yes, amen; let it be so, I promise to love You forever. But yet, shortly into the agreement. Your love saw, so many broken promises. I agreed to love You, give You my everything. But sometimes, I still withheld a breath. Let me renegotiate, between heart and soul. We have accepted, it’s once again time… for bended knees. A heart not beholden, to its own viewpoint. My opinion is irrelevant, I already agreed; Your love will always get the final say. In accordance to Your word, and in agreement with Your love. My heart and soul agree, to forever trust Your heart. Even when I don’t deserve it, Your love is thinking of me!
My soul, is not under a contract; but Your love, what puts it all in context. You made the ultimate Sacrifice, so therefore why shouldn’t my heart not acknowledge; Your love is just too kind to me. You agreed to do it, lay Your love all out… for all to see. And for that, my soul will forever be grateful. The price, my heart will never be able to repay. As long as I have breath. This love, will never be a soul tied up; in legalistic bindings. Free, to vigorously pursue Your heart. Day after day, it will be a heart committed. The soul commitment, my love Yours forever. Even though yesterday was another stumble, today a fall… short of my true potential. Tomorrow, probably failing; to move Your heart… with All of my love. My heart is thankful, that You have provided my soul a way; for a moment of grace. Knowing all, that my heart would put Your love through. You still wanted, to enter into a love agreement; with my heart and soul. This is The Agreement, to love You true… for the rest of my days!

To Be!
To be with You, thoughts of love no longer hidden. Secrets, no longer kept; a heart forever exposed. To be into You; deep, but a word, depth just a place. Deeper, where words have no place. The heart feels, but the soul interprets; what words tries to explain. The mind blown, the heart overwhelmed, the soul finding peace; love… hovers. Every facet creates a move, every breath becomes an echo. Predicated on a true understanding, of a love divine. A love like the wind, the breadth unfathomable; the depth is like an ocean. Even in just a mist, the soul can feel the forever reign!
To be, found lost within a gaze. To be, breathless within Your presence. To be, wrapped up within a forever embrace. To be, captivated by the awe and wonder. To be, captured; struck by the beauty. To be, desperate for just a touch. To be, overwhelmed by amazing love. To be safe, content, grateful, loved; completely lost for words. To be, or not to be? What my soul, will never question. To be a soul free, to be heart vulnerable; to be completely in love. That’s the question, to be with You!

Song Inspired; This Year!
This is the time, a time such as this. This is the day, the only day truly promised. A time for change, a day to see a change. To set aside some time, to forever see a change; in heart and soul. This is the moment, this is a moment. Your moment in time, to possess the land; see your Jericho fall. This year, doors will be opened. Chase lack out of your life, watch as the shadows of doubt; walk out the open doors. Then let a new perspective, be forever in your heart. Let the glory of the latter, be truly better… than the former. Expect a thousand fold increase, all you will ever need; faith, and believe. This is the season, the season to let your life shine; brighter than ever before. Spread your wings, soar even higher. Aim for the stars, let hope take hold of your heart; until you’ve seen the light of heaven. Then lavish your new found hope, on someone in need. A heart full, of true love and kindness!
A prophetic understanding is not needed, to know you can’t expect a Resolution to something. Without first getting a Revelation, to what your heart truly needs. We need to be thankful, for the little things. Be grateful, for everything we have… today. There will never truly be a change in mind, without first knowing a change has taken place… in the heart. What’s the expectation, for your heart? What are you expecting to see different, not just this year, but every day. Do you want a better vision… for your life? Just so you can say, you have sight? Do you want insight, to see life with true clarity? So many have the ability to see, but still lack the ability to perceive. This Year, your heart choose to chase after greater achievements. But forever let the true pursuit be, how to have Greater Victories, Today!
This Year, is a song released in 2016; by Israel Strong, a young rising African gospel artist.

The Message; 20/20
What do you expect… to see differently, what is the expectation; are you expecting to see a better… 2020? Bound or free, how do you see… your heart? Seeing clearly, not just about having dreams; but how to have the right vision, so your dreams to come true. We have all seen a lot, experienced so much. Day after day, year after year; the focus needs to be the same. Wake up each and every day, expecting to see notable change… within. See a shift take place, in heart and soul. So not even the yesteryear, would recognize who you are… today. See opportunities, to improve, see what needs to truly change. A heart can believe it has the best sight, because of a certain vantage point. Seeing is deceiving, if the truth of God’s love; is not part of your heart is believing!
One thing I know, true clarity can only be achieved; through the lens of God’s love. Ten plus ten, is made into a perfect vision; when multiplied, by His love. An eye can see signs and wonder, but to the heart it may not be revealed; to see God in the very midst. One thing my, and every heart should desire. Gaze upon the beauty, be in complete awe of the majestic splendor; see when His love moves… your heart. They say, seeing is believing; but how can you truly see, if your heart is not first open? Every belief, has to have a true purpose; every destination a clear direction. You don’t need phenomenal vision, to see God in everything. Just forever trust, His love has you by the heart. You have plans, but God has His plan… for your life!
Even though the world is flawed, we can still see visions of love. His love is still made perfectly clear, even through an imperfect heart. A heart that can see a shift, not within an afterglow of yesterday. But by the undeniable glory, of what His love can change in you… today. They say, hindsight is 20/20. But so many hearts, are still stumbling in the dark. So many souls, perishing for lack… of vision. Do you truly know your identity, can you see… who you truly are? May 2020 vision, be a year of new insight. Not about resolutions, but a Revelation!
Father, the darkness causes so much misunderstanding. Hearts forgetting, Your love is what gives the true understanding. Your love is worth finding, Your heart worth knowing. The skies could be falling, mountains tumbling down. That would never stop my soul from seeing, how to find a way to Your heart. Even if rivers are running wild, and the sea overrunning shores. On Your love, may all our hearts firmly stand. My heart knows, Your love is an ocean, and there’s no deeper place. Oh Lord, open the eyes of our hearts. May Your love come into our focus, be seen as the vision. All Your promises are yea, and Amen!
“If people can’t see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves. But, when they attend to what He reveals; they are most blessed!” Proverbs 29:18 MSG

Today!
Today, You can find my mind distracted, even with the busyness of the day. A heart trying to focus on Your love, a soul with so much to say. How can write down what’s on my heart, capture the feeling; when the mind keeps wandering off… down the road called life? It’s not the first time, the mind wandered. Life is an everyday distraction, and the heart has always been able to reign the mind in. Today, seems a little bit different. Maybe it’s because, the heart and soul had made plans, and the mind was part of the plan. This was supposed to be the first day; Undistracted devotion. Start the year off like I have done, for so many years. Disciplining mind, body, and soul. A heart focused, a soul looking take a deeper dive; but the mind, seem to have other plans. Today, there’s distractions in the way. The normal busyness of the day, but also a wandering mind. But, that won’t stop, didn’t deter my heart and soul. My heart is back in control, because I know who I am; an overcomer. A wandering mind, will never stop my heart. From doing what I have to do, share what’s on my heart; even… Today!

Stepping Out!
For a heart to truly step into the new, a soul has to be willing to step out of the darkness; into a new light. In order to rise up stronger, with every single dawn? Your soul has to rise up, but the heart has to step up. For the new to become a deeper understanding, a higher level to truly be seen? You have to believe, not just in abilities. But in the power, that gives you the ability… to overcome. A step out of what was, into what is… to come. To know what to let go of, to step into what you need… to take hold of. Stepping out, of what holds your heart back; what tries to keep your soul bound. So you can experience, true freedom!
Your heart will never be positioned for glory, without first being truly free. Your soul will never truly soar, without first knowing you have wings. There has to be a shift within your heart, a revelation that speaks truth to your soul. A heart will never experience sinking sand, when you have found a solid rock… on which you stand. For the heart to embrace true depth, the soul has to allow the floodgates… to be opened. Embracing the new, gives you a reason to dance, a way to shake off the old. What you thought was dead, can breathe new life. A soul standing on the Sure, is a heart knowing how to; Stepping Out… into the deep!
