You are love, You are Great. You gave life, Your love gives life; Your love is the greatest!
You are hope, Your love strengthens all hope. My hope; in You, and You alone. Your love is the hope, the strength within true faith!
You are the breath, You are the air. Your love is the breath, the air within my lung; You are!
There is darkness, these are darkened times. But there is a light, there is a Great light. Great is Your light; You are Great. You restore, Your love restores; the greatness within every heart. The broken hearted, can have their light restored. You are Great, so Great You Are, Lord!
“Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts. I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.” Psalms 145:3-5 KJV
Your love is amazing, whenever my heart thinks; that I’ve figured You out. My heart realizes, that there’s still so many sides; to my never ending amazement, of Your love. Turn by turn, I find myself face to face; with Your splendor. I draw closer to Your heart, but at the very same time; I’m absolutely bewildered. That You would even allow my heart, to draw so close?
Your love has such height, but it’s the length and breadth; that stretches my imagination. At times I don’t think that I can measure up, but then I rise up; day after day, it’s another journey into Your heart. To overcome, is to trust forever in Your love; to not give into fear, of the unknown.
Once I get to the end of this journey, Your heart will surely be the treasure; forever worth seeking. So I press on, believe in Your worth; a love worth chasing!
In my mind’s eye, I see my way; but this is the amazing part. For me, true beauty is seen through the beauty of Your love; but that beauty, even goes beyond words. Beyond walls, beyond what I can even see. A-Maze, is still just a fraction of what I see; the ending, it’s still being written. My heart is drawn, drawn to Your love; but it’s Your heart, that holds the true mysteries!
Which parts of Your love, is my heart bold enough to explore? Finding myself lost within the presence of Your love; that in itself is an overwhelming feeling. Knowing that Your love patiently waits, for my heart to find it’s way; means it’s a love truly worth finding. So, to the center of Your love at any cost; sold out, the true test of any heart. Your love is embedded within my soul, nestled up against my heart; pulling me through. You A-Maze me, Your love is truly A-Maze-Ing. My heart will never stop, until my soul forever knows. Where Your love ends, and my heart will ever begin; to stop being utterly Amazed?
• God is… The light, even when the time seems to be so dark; God is!
• God is… The protection, when my mind tries to attack my heart; God is!
• God is… The joy, when my heart can’t bare to see so much sorrow; God is!
• God is… my heart, my soul; my life, my strength, my everything, my God is!
• God is… my today, my tomorrow, my forever. In all, within my heart; ten thousand times yes, God is!
He removes the pain, the misery, the strife. He promised to keep, never ever leave, to provide all our needs. What God does, Who God is; why God is!
He will never come short of His word, fast and pray; stay within the narrow way. You’ve come so far, now is not the time to turn back. Keep your life clean, keeps your heart holy. God lives within, my friends; God is!
“He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High, will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Psalms 91:1-2 ESV
“In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.” Genesis 1:1-5 ESV
My friends, I love you, I cherish you; but I have confidence in no one, But God. The God who created our hearts, His love hovers; let His light be visible, throughout your heart. So, when the darkness tries to separate you from the light, and the water covers the surface of your face; but God. Take comfort in this; the night, will again become the day. Flip the script, then go ahead and Flip the Switch; let your light shine. Let God’s love separate your heart, from the darkness that tries to cover; the divine love within!
My heart was off to the races; beating a thousand miles a minute. My young, foolish heart; thought that life was a hundred yard dash. Only to find out, that there’s hurdles along the way. I’ve tripped over my ego, a few too many times; a stumbling block, my heart failed to avoid. My ego wasn’t hurt, my foolish heart showed some bruises. It was the battles within the mind, that left my heart with a few scars. But I was strong… willed, so I dusted off my heart; a race is about endurance. Being swift, without knowing how to take a moment to breathe. That would inevitably be another scar, my heart wouldn’t allow my mind to battle, alone!
So many miles, you need faith to go the distance; along this long winding road. Going the distance, was a choice my heart had to make. All the falls, they truly made me realize. That the race has never been about the miles, but the distance; a courageous heart is truly willing to go. Even if I just limped across the finish line, it would still be a picture perfect finish. God’s love will be there waiting; well done, you were faithful. I’ve put a lot of miles on this heart, this one thing I have learned; the distance, overcome the miles. There’s no need to walk a mile, my heart is still learning; how to walk in the shoes, of a man named Jesus!
Going the distance for me, is not about putting one foot in front of the other. I determined long ago, that my heart will go the distance. Faithfulness is the hurdle, that will never be an obstacle; that trips my heart. With every little step, as the journey fortifies my love; as this heart relentlessly continues to chase. Not the pursuit for happiness, but the pursuit for a closer walk. The journey continued, every time the night; once again became the day. Life tries to tear at the fabric of your heart, trying to unravel the love within; strand by strand!
At times my soul has felt so worn, tired was the soles of my feet; but truly beautiful, has been every single step. I’ve learned how to get a grip, the anchor forever holds. My heart has endured the miles, forever seeking; digging deeper, than what I see on the surface. Whenever I fell, a love tugged on my heart strings. A love always helping me to stand, my heart needed to stay the course. My heart never once felt clothed in shame, I proudly wore the love. The number Seven, it’s on my back; the Three, that’s within my heart. Around my waist, the belt of righteousness; forever girds my soul. My heart is racing, beating a thousand miles a minute. Chasing after a love, breathlessly throughout my soul!
How deep, how deep is Your love; How? Is it deeper than an ocean, would it be completely over our heads, could a heart truly know; How?
What is the depth, what is the depth of Your heart; What? Would the knowing forever take your breath away, could a heart truly fathom? Would a heart hit rock bottom; trying to get to the What, is the depth. Trying to fathom the What, would only be the start; towards a true comprehension?
How great, how great is Your love; How? Is it greater than the stars, could a keen heart; see into the vastness? Would an endless starry gaze, help hearts to truly see; beyond our own souls… system? That would truly be the begin of wisdom. Trying to understand; the true length and breadth, of How great is this love?
Why does a soul, why does a soul yearn endlessly for love? The sole desire, should forever be capitulation; to know What, it is to be truly reborn? True surrender, is not about a feeling. It’s about a being, knowing the How; to let your soul forever be set free. Does your heart truly want to know Why, it desires to be at a place? Where the being free, means letting your soul be forever captured, by a beautiful love?
Open up your heart, let love stretch your soul. Take the deep dive, but first you need to get off the What; you feel to be your sure, to let your heart thrive. Let your heart go deeper, let your soul gasp. Air, is not the What, a heart needs; to live forever. Don’t take another breath, until your soul learns how to breathe; through the love of God. Let your heart be desperate, trying to know the How; deep is this love? You may not know the Why, and the How; you only need to know, The Who!
The barometer is telling, that the temperature is falling; but the love within my heart, forever seems to be rising. I must be feeling a heat wave, my heart knows; it’s Your love that has my temperature rising. The barometric pressure within my heart, is absolutely fluctuating; it rises and falls, with every breath You take. Let me hold my breath, just so I can hear Your every heartbeat; in the attempt to fathom, the true depth of Your love. But why would I ever want to breathe, if my barometer couldn’t even detect; the fire within my bones?
Let me, therefore gauge my own heart. I will forever use Your love, as the true benchmark; in which to gauge my very soul. Eve if it’s just a degree of separation, would undoubtedly expose; that there’s a lingering coldness, that would need to be immediately adjusted. Your love has the ability, and the very right to gauge my true motives; look deep within. There’s no science to Your love. Not even a rocket scientist would be able to figure out, why my heart burns out of control; whenever Your presence, gets within a thousand feet of my heart?
Extra, extra, you can read all about it; this is not news. Send home all the meteorologists, all the climatologist; they simply have it backwards. Yes, hot air rises; but my barometer tells a different story. It tells me that Your love, will continue to flow down; into the depth my soul. My heart is just an instrument, an instrument used to show change. How everyone views a love such as this, will show how very instrumental; Your love has been in my heart. No judgement is needed, I invite you to gauge my heart for yourself. To what degree of change you see, it truly doesn’t matter; the judge already said, Not Guilty!
Give my heart a pressure test, check the temperature of my soul. The love is forever hardwired, batteries not included; my heart is insulated by the love inside. Thermo is the feeling, it will never about the Stat… us quo; this is a progressive love. The atmospheric test, used to measure the depth of my love. My heart used to display short term changes, but the new change is definitive; reflective of a long term commitment. My barometer, not broken; I no longer wonder if I truly measure up? Numerous times within my youth, I felt a love forever tugging on my heartstrings; peering endlessly into my soul. The measuring up season within my life has changed, all because God’s love forever remained the same. It was never about measuring up, but forever standing out; by what truly defines. Hot or cold, lukewarm; will never be the temperature that defines, my heart!
We all go through things, we all go through trying times. Our hearts are forever tested, hold on to your faith. Hope is the foundation, but faith is the key; unlock your destiny. Has your back been against the wall, but while standing there. Your faith told you to look up, and the wall disappeared; but you don’t know how?
• Does it look as if you can never win, but then that all suddenly changed; and you’re not sure why?
• Did you have a bill that got paid, but you didn’t know how?
• Was there a mountain, that you felt you couldn’t climb; but somehow you got to the other side, and you don’t know how you did it?
• Did your kids change their bankrupt way of thinking, and you don’t know how?
• Did you get a promotion, that you weren’t expecting; now you’re asking yourself how, or even why?
• Do you ever look back, on where you’ve come from; astonished to see how far you’ve come, but you don’t know how?
My friend, God is in control. Your faith is what opened the door, God’s love is what always brings you through. God meets you at your faith, His love leads the way; with faith, nothing impossible.
Giants get defeated, walls fall, chains break, mountains move; God’s love makes a way. You may not know how, you may not know why? But He does it, for you; be forever grateful!
“Taste and see, that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” Psalm 34:8 NIV
I’ve made my heart available, it serves no good purpose; if I just keep it to myself. The time came, when I received the call. My heart answered, the time had come; for my heart to be put on display. No need for haggling, there will be no negotiating; absolutely no compromise. The price, was never on the sticky side; in clear view, for all to see. After it’s all said and done, the only objective; is being sold out. This is not about the art of the deal; price, bought, sold… Out; to the True Love, already on display. Go ahead, call it the real deal. What you get, is truly what you see; a new heart, don’t be scared to put it on display!
It comes as is, take it or leave it; the choice is up to you. It’s the event of the century, for every heart to truly behold. Accommodation provided, a way made perfectly clear. Park your heart, a spot will be forever reserved. Driving optional, learning to walk-in the truth; let your heart take hold. Whatever you are carrying, the burden will be lifted. Come one, come all; come as you are. Come early, come late; come when your heart is truly ready? Don’t come if you’re a slick brother, fast talker; like I said, no negotiating!
There’s no waiting, no line; single file entry. Don’t worry, if you’ve been known to cross the line. Even the proverbial line, you drew in the sand; that will be forever washed away. You alone gets to choose, what it truly means; to be sold out? Look at me, my heart may not be the best, my mind has many flaws; you don’t have to buy what I’m selling. The price, has already been paid; the price was on a cross. The payment for my heart, was paid in full; with it, came all my love. That’s the story, of why my heart is sold out; For Christ!
Is your foundation crumbling, is stress cracks; forever plaguing your heart? Then it’s truly time, to rebuild your foundation. Is someone within your life, causing you to question the faith; in your foundation? It’s not the time to distance your heart, double check the foundation. Don’t build a wall, build a bridge; allow the love access, to cross barriers. But always remember, even a beautiful bridge; needs an absolutely strong foundation. Whenever the stress cracks become apparent, cement the cracks with endless love; stabilize, fortify the foundation!
Protect the foundation, peace, kindness, faithfulness; are all strong pillars, to any foundation. But love is still the cement, that forever holds it all together; give, and it shall be given. Pour it on thick if you have to, just strengthen the foundation. Don’t make it about the ratio, but about the consistent; outpouring of love. When your heart is not sure what to do, and you need some clarity? Don’t send an Email to a friend, who may be too busy to answer. Use the ever reliable Knee Mail, your heart will surely get the answer it’s seeking. Let others see your faithfulness, a foundation built upon a solid rock. When the love of Jesus becomes the foundation, others will truly see; that there’s absolutely still Hope, for Humanity!
“Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.” Psalm 127:1 NIV
