Father!

Father, first and foremost, my deepest thanks, for all my heart has seen, Your love been. You’ve been so faithful, time after time. You’ve given my soul, far beyond my need. You are my confidence, to wait patiently, until You speak to my heart. Father, You know my heart. Whenever my soul cries out, You’re always there, in the silence. Speak, I’m listening; still my heart, let my soul hear, the still whispers. Father, I know, so many times I’ve let You down. I’m so grateful, You have room for me, at the foot of Your heart. Why would I dare, how would my soul fare, if You, hadn’t always been there? I’m so amazed, at what You’ve done, and what my heart truly knows; You’re Everything. Father, I’m a man of few, but my words are true. My heart can’t imagine, where my soul would have been, without Your love, in my life. When, my heart was drowning, in my silent river, You breathed for me. You, taught me how to sail, in Your ocean. In the darkest moments, I press deeper into You; Your love is my hope. Whenever I am lost, You came to find me. When the tears fall like rain, there You are, to hide my soul, from the storm. When, my heart is in deep waters, I know, You will be there. When my soul is on fire, Your love I thirst. Your love, taught me how to love deeply, how to live freely, how to see clearly; Your heart. Whenever I fell, You were always there, to lift me up. When, I’m on Your shoulders, I am… part of You. My heart, is not asking for anything. I just, want to give You my affection. Grace, Beautiful Grace, You have such love for me, my heart can’t find words; I’m Speechless. Abba, You alone, can fathom the depth of my love. So many things, my heart had to let go. So Your love, could forever teach my soul; what it means to truly know, a daddy’s love!

Pressing, into Your Love!

Love, oh love, life is but a breath; why, I’m pressing into You, until You take, my last breath. Tomorrow is not promised, so today within love’s embrace. I lay down my heart, to feel the power of love, pressing into my heart and soul. In the pressing, in the trusting, in the searching, in the wading; the drowning, the finding. In love’s deepest ocean, the breadth of thy love, becoming the breath in my lungs, the love ballad I sing. “Love, fear is not my future, You are. Sickness is not my story, You are. Heartbreak is not my home, You are.” My faith will stand, my hope will dream, my love will seek, my heart will yearn; depth in my soul will become, thee. Fragmented is not my portion, You are. Long winded speech, won’t become my breath. Poetic words, will never move a soul, if love isn’t in it. Love, chases the butterflies, setting the heart free, to be. A beautiful display of grace, breathless within the wings of love. When, I’m standing in the fire, my soul will be consumed, in the flame of thy love. So, my heart can rise out of the ashes, not like a phoenix, but a graceful dove. Love, You amaze me, You redeem me, You changed me. You’re my strength, my refuge, my defender. My soul, will press into Your love, to have my breath held… forever!

“I admit, that I haven’t yet acquired the absolute fullness, that I’m pursuing, but I run with passion into His abundance, so that I may reach the purpose for which Christ Jesus laid hold of me, to make me His own. I don’t depend, on my own strength to accomplish this; however, I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart, to the future instead. I run straight for the divine invitation of reaching the heavenly goal, and gaining the victory-prize through the anointing of Jesus.” Philippians 3:12-14 TPT

A Love Story; I’ve Been Touched!

I’ve heard all the stories, but I am worthy, to be part of the love story? If my faith could just, if my heart will just press through? My issue, would surely be a change, in me. But, there are so many reasons, standing in my way. The doctor has said, the people are saying, but nevertheless, my heart is desperate. My soul has a yearning, to be free of the chains, holding me… back. Fear, don’t stand in my way, I need to get closer. My heart, needs to be at the place, to know what’s in a touch. My soul, will endure the eyes, shrug off the lies. I need a touch, even if, just the hem!

Someone, has touched me. In the stillness, the power was felt. The love, the enduring hope; I’ve been touched. Who was it, I must know. My love has to see, whose faith would be so bold, to touch my heart? With, just a touch of the fabric, tethered we have become. Come closer, there’s no need, to hide your heart. When your faith, has deeply touched me. What your soul seeks, your heart has surely found. I felt it, and I was moved, by the strength of your faith. Come, let my love speak to your heart. Let it be the oasis, to soothe your tears, change your heart. The vail, will be torn, in you my love will reveal. Your chains are broken, your heart is healed, your soul set free, to walk in freedom. Beloved, peace be with you, your faith, has made you whole!

He touched me, and oh the joy, the love floods my soul. Something happened, and now I know; I’ve been touched. The love, took my breath, freed my heart, restored my hope, with amazing grace. Love, broke the shackles, and I’m no longer, a slave to fear. My blood, sweat, and tears; was never the issue. Faith, moved the mountain. My heart, was on the edge, my soul was desperate. My faith stepped out, and my heart said, if I could just? Hemming and hawing, never advanced my heart, just kept me bound, to fear of the unknown. When, love’s encounter is heartfelt, it becomes a love story, so profound!

“Jesus suddenly stopped, and said to his disciples, “Someone touched me. Who was it?” While they all denied it, Peter pointed out, “Master, everyone is touching you, trying to get close to you. The crowds are so thick we can’t walk through all these people without being jostled.” Jesus replied, “Yes, but I felt power surge through me. Someone touched me to be healed, they received their healing.” When the woman realized, she couldn’t hide any longer, she came and fell trembling at Jesus’ feet. Before the entire crowd she declared, “I was desperate to touch you, Jesus, for I knew if I could just touch even the fringe of your garment I would be healed.” Luke 8:45-47 TPT

He’s Holding You Up!

If your strength is failing, He’ll take you, from strength to strength. When your heart is flailing, He will hold you close. If your faith is teetering, His love will balance your worth. When your heart is wailing, He will console your soul. If your breath is fading, His love will breathe for you. If you’ve lost your way, and don’t see footprints in the sand? It’s because, He’s carrying you, within the wings of His love. His strength is, perfect for your crumbling world, when quicksand surrounds your heart. His love, your firm foundation, the rock on which you can stand. When it looks, like you’re losing the battle, be still and know; He’ll fight for you. If fear is taunting, when doubt is creeping; His love will come, vigorously defend your heart. When the rain comes, when the wind blows, when your wings are flailing. The breadth of His love will be, the wind beneath your wings; holding you up. His love, changes everything!

His love, “Strengthen the weak hands (wings), and make firm the feeble knees (faith). Says to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come, and save you.” Isaiah 35:3-4

Bended Knees!

When, the battlefield is the mind, life hovers near your heart. Burdens, advance within the moments, seeking an opportunity, to upend your resolve. While Fear, lingers in the shadows. Looking to steal, an arrow out of your quiver, and pierce your hope, through a crack in your armor. Some days, it’s jubilee, believing you have the victory. Only, to be taken back, life aggressively wages against your faith. Finding, the strength to push forward, easier said, than done. In the stillness, you hear a whisper in the wind; the battle is not yours… Thinking, you have might, to fight; you press on. But then, Grief enters the battlefield, making your heart tremble. And before you know it, hurt is creeping closer and closer, to your heart. When, Life, Fear, Burdens, Grief, Hurt; surrounds your heart, and it seems you’re losing the battle? What do you do? In the cleft of the rock, hide yourself, and find your worth. When I’m surrounded, I know my heart is surrounded, by Love, and Grace. On bended knees, this is how, you fight the battles, gain the victory!

“Now my beloved ones, I have saved these most important truths for last: Be supernaturally infused with strength through your life-union with the Lord Jesus. Stand victorious with the force of his explosive power flowing in and through you. Put on God’s complete set of armor provided for us, so that you will be protected as you fight against the evil strategies of the accuser!” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭TPT‬‬

Lean on Me!

When you’re not strong enough, when your faith is failing, when hope seems lost; lean on my heart. I will faithfully, lift you up in prayer. Bring your heart, to the foot of the cross. Sometimes, I’m not always strong, so I lean. Love, will help you fight the battles, helps you carry the weight. A helping hand, something to lean on, that’s what love is. Love listens, when your heart needs to be heard. When you need a friend, love shows up, with compassion. Love, doesn’t have to be brave, just be endearing. When life, brings your pain, when the tears fall, let love wipe your fears. When a diagnosis comes, knocking at your heart, trying to steal your breath? Just breathe, love is there, in the shadows; hold out your heart. Peace through strength, love will defend your worth. Press into the heart of love, let the warmth be felt. Love doesn’t need words, to be resounding. My friends, if you’re ever in need, of a love to lean on, my heart is available. Lean on Me, and together we will lean, against the Father’s heart!

“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis. Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways, and you’ll discover that I’m gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment and rest in me.” Matthew 11:28-29 TPT

At the Well!

At a well, love’s presence meets your heart there. On every journey, when love is the desire, there’s a well, for your soul to draw from, to have your fill. At the sixth hour, love shines at its zenith. Though, the heart has many questions. A good-hearted Samaritan, will surely tend to the need, when love ask you for a drink. If the heart, knew the blessings love will afford? No heart, would ever second guess, when love has a request. Living water, it’s drawn from the deepest well; that’s what true love is. It satisfies, a heart’s every need. “Everyone, who drinks of the water love gives, your soul will never thirst again. Love is, like a spring of water, welling up inside, with endless life.” Love, pours into a heart wide open, to let the thirst no longer be. For every soul, willing to dip into the well. When love fills me up, I AM, well. A heart well-informed, knows love will forever care for your well-being. When profound love, speaks to your soul, your whole being knows!

Well, oh well, you keep all my tears, you know all my secrets. In love, I have a wishing well. My wish, if any love is found tainted in me? Love, empty me, until my heart is purified. Less of me, will leave more of you. So others, who need a drink, can draw from my purest love. True love, it’s like rain falling, making your love become, a deep river. Pure love is like water, bottled up inside, poured out to become refreshing love. Many have the desire, to be a deep well. But only, if the love is not built, with a heart of stone. Deep love, will fill the void. The deeper the well, the more profound the tell; how pure the reign? Love poured out frequently, fills up the heart consistently. The more revealing the taste, the more reassuring the love, a heart knowing the true essence. When, love invites your soul to drink, a heart receives its fill. In the desert, there’s water to be found, at love’s well. The freedom to partake, is there, healing is there, redemption is there, forgiveness is there. Acceptance is there, power is there, joy is there. Grace is there, salvation is here. If you’re broken-hearted, restoration is there, at the well!

Love, the Stronghold!

Love, knows a hideaway, the place, where the heart can retreat. A safe place, in the deep of love’s embrace. Heart and soul, strengthened to withstand, the sands of times. An ocean without borders, a river with living water. An oasis will be, a soul resting, on the peaceful sure. Time sways the minutes, but can’t change what you make, become the moment. When, love becomes the stronghold, chains are broken. The power of love, strength through a graceful plain. The height, gives sight to the perspective. The breadth, what fathoms the depth therein. Love, whispered into the soul, tells the heart, I see into you, to the deepest places. Wherewith, deep in being, the truest sanctuary, found in love’s graceful moments. Love, has a secret place, wherein life breathed, breathless becomes the encounter. The soul, finding comfort to breathe, love’s blessed assurance, your heart will be okay. When, you know love as a stronghold, it’s an intimate place, with its beautiful exchange, where your peace can rest. A soul free, to know your faith is held, when love holds your gaze. A place, where you can profoundly breathe, be a soul surrendered, to the love within. Love withholding nothing, a heart under the canopy, in the refuge of grace. Hopes and dreams, are discovered in; Love’s stronghold!

“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis. Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways and you’ll discover that I’m gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment, and rest in me.” Matthew 11:28-29 TPT

Pray!

Where does a heart go, when you can’t catch your breath? The wind taking it, with the butterflies in your stomach? What do you do, when you’ve prayed, but there’s seems to be a change, in the direction of the wind? Keep praying. What should you do, when you’re on pins and needles, when there’s a sharp pain in your faith? Get on your knees, and search your heart. There’s strength in knowing, this too shall pass. What are you to do, when your loved ones are in a state of chronic, but it’s your heart chronicling? By keeping them in prayer, like writing a love letter on their heart. A prayer today, a true blessing tomorrow. On the road called life, when it seems you’ve lost your way? I pray, you would come to know, that Grace is always there, to take you by the heart. To comfort your soul, help guide you through the journey, until you’ve reached your destiny. Life, is but a breadth, so live it well. Sow good seeds, and your heart will see the harvest. Yes, I pray your life becomes, a profound love story. Every chapter, every paragraph, every verse. Making the heart swell, with tears of joy. The presence of love, felt deep within the heart. Nothing else, can let the soul rest with peace. Whenever, your words become speechless, emotions invading your peace; say a silent prayer. Your worth is relevant, what others think irrelevant, to what your heart believes. Love and support, gives you a heart to lean on. Today, and every day: I Pray, love becomes that faithful friend. That won’t ever let your heart, feel abandoned, I’m your time of need!

“Whenever my busy thoughts, were out of control, the soothing comfort of your presence, calmed me down and overwhelmed me with delight.”Psalms 94:19 TPT
