Love; The Impact!

You were my strength, when I felt weak. My voice, when my heart didn’t even have words. My eyes, when my heart could barely see. Your love saw greatness in me, but all I saw; was how greatly Your love impacted me. Your love gave my heart the strength, to be able to lift up my faith. One gaze into Your heart, was enough to make me believe; that I could forever trust Your love, that’s when the first impact was felt. Your love, and my heart collided; to this day, the impact is still felt. Like a tidal wave, just like a hurricane; even as a gentle breeze, the effect was instantly noticed. Significant enough to cause a shift, gentle enough to make a lasting impact. Everlasting will be the influence, forever in love; that will be the ramifications!

There were, and are still times; when I’ve been hard headed. But the impact of Your love, has drilled down so much truth into my soul. I’ve learned a lot, a heart partially made of stone; was starting to allow Your love, to chisel away the rough edges. A love that has impacted, a love still impacting; a love with so much impact. A love firmly pressed up against my heart, a love that has now left a deep impression. First, I felt a touch, but even that first oh so gentle touch. Had such an impact, causing a truly significant change; altering how my heart truly sees. A heart being transformed, being shaped and molded. Into a heart, that is truly ready to be used. To show how Your love has made an impact, on me!

A Story; The Undiscovered Love!

The month of November has five Friday’s, so I thought I would post this piece. I’m constantly writing, some you may get to see. This one I originally wrote four years ago for my own enjoyment, but decided to edit it a little today as a treat for you. It’s a bit longer than what I usually like to post, but like I said; it’s a treat for those who like stories. At the very end there’s also a reference, may it help guide your heart. If you like the piece, comment below; I may post another one again in the new year!

My heart has brought me to this place, everyone of my heartbeat; was the compass. Amongst all the chaos, my heart beheld a beauty; within a Risen Star. And oh how my heart just can’t seem to stop, orbiting The Light; radiating from within this love. At first, my initial instinct was to throttle back the emotions, reverse course; but resistance was futile. My heart was captivated by a gravitational pull, a love my soul has never known; a love with so much strength. At first I just couldn’t understand, why this love had such an unbelievable pull; on my dangling heartstring? I tried to Engineer a way out of the hold, but my heart was being shifted. I was strong willed, but I didn’t have enough power; to withstand the strength of this love. It seemed inevitable; that my heart and this love, would surely collide!

This love captured my imagination, my heart just didn’t know; if my soul even wanted to be set free? There was this undeniable security, being forever held; within the depth of this loving embrace. I had to check my Sensors, was I still breathing; the heart of the Vessel, wasn’t ready to burst. This love has a force, my heart had never before encountered such strength. The closeness, that was the true encounter; a warmth like no other. This love has a grip on my heart, my soul forever locked in an unbreakable holding pattern; this love was encompassing my entire heart. I always thought, I was the captain of my own heart; but my heart found itself, in an uncharted place. The magnetism of the love, is so unbelievably strong. This love has the ability, to see into the very depth of my soul; a love with an undeniable presence!

My heart, my soul, my known universe; forever changed, this love has taken over my heart. I don’t think I can stop my heart, from wanting to forever be assimilated; into this overwhelming love. My heart is absolutely locked, within a real attraction; fatal, would be if my heart ever denied such a love. My heart is Beaming, locked forever within a gaze; felt deep down within my soul. My heart is truly overwhelmed, by the essence within this Amazing Love. My heart is secure, wrapped within a truly substantive love. This love is penetrating every aspect of my shields, my heart is left absolutely exposed. This love truly seems to be having its loving way; with my entire heart and soul. Now my heart is being sent, an away mission; to seek out hearts, lost within this world!

Captains log, Star date; 11.30.2018. My first officer, and crew; K.I.D.S, have set out on a journey. Trying to give each other Space to grow, to Discover The Final Frontier. Voyagers, together in life; but on a Mission, to Explore. To Seek out the newness within this World, within this civilization; to Boldly Go, where our heart will take us. Along the way, my heart has experienced a wave of emotions. At times desperately trying to cloak my heart, trying not to be absolutely vulnerable; but my shields have often failed, to stop a love that has already moved my soul. My heart has never been one to beat a thousand miles a minute, but some days this love has my heart racing at Warp Speed. Most days I try to keep it humming, at One Quarter Impulse; doing my very best, to not get ahead of the love!

My heart was once lost within the black hole in my soul, but there’s a light; a love that repels the darkness. My heart is being stretched, my soul has not yet reached its capacity; forever being molded by a truly indescribable love. My heart has to daily rediscover, seeking means to find this love over and over; undiscovered, the deeper parts of this love. Abiding forever within this love, my heart will truly Live Long and Prosper. My soul has Trekked too far, for my heart to ever turn back now. So, until the day my hearts journey comes to an end, and my soul finally gets to go home. Until then, James T.. wo, the first; will be a safe passage, to help a heart get through it all!

My Every Breath?

How, how could I ever attempt to breathe; without You? You are the air, that moves within my lungs. I simply can’t, and I simply wouldn’t; try to attempt such a feat. Your love is my life, my very lifeline; the life that moves within every beat of my heart. Every single day I ask my heart just one question; are you crazy like a fox? I couldn’t even imagine, or could even begin to think; about a life without Your love!

Crazy is as crazy does, but that kind of crazy; wouldn’t even sense; to think that you could possibly breathe on your own. Foxes have dens, birds have nests. So, why would I ever want to fall out of love, with a heart teaching my soul how to soar. Just to fall into a den of thieves, trying to steal my every breath. Heart, take a moment to breathe that all in. Resuscitation is possible, but let every deep breath of this love; be what forever moves your soul.

Your love takes my breath, but yet Your love is what helps me to breathe. Your love is the breath within my heart, the love that breathes throughout my soul. I live and breathe, only because Your love is the air; the love that makes a heart feel truly alive. I couldn’t live, much less to even try to breathe; without Your love. Oh my soul, take a deep breath; but exhale only when your heart knows. To live your life through a deeper love; then you will truly be able to love, the life you get to live. If it happens to forever take your breath, living will now begin; because you finally know how to breathe!

So how, how could I give You less of my love, when my heart wants to give You my every breath? They say less is more, but less of Your love. Could never give my heart more of the air, my soul simply needs to breathe. How, if I don’t forever make Your love; My Every Breath?

This Poetic Love!

Pen to paper, not what I need; to have a poetic moment. This is not about feeling, but I feel. This is not about capturing the moment, but my heart is truly captured; by the poetry within Your love. I didn’t always pour out my heart, but again and again; Your love is been poured into my soul. Your love has always been at the very center of my heart, a forever love affair, growing stronger and stronger. Your love is the pillar, the foundation that grounds my heart; the poetry that moves my soul, Your love is a poem!

My heart is trying to give Your love a voice. The melody within my heart, is Your love song playing within my soul; I hear an Endless Love. Your love is what first moved my heart, but now flows in an endless loop; throughout my very soul. A breathtaking love, that takes my every breath. Living is not living, if it’s not lived; through Your love, and Your love alone. A love that has my mind so blown, that I can’t even believe; these words are even within my heart. Your love is so more, than a poem; but truly poetic!

How deep does the love go, my heart is still trying to know. Your love gives my heart an overflow, words can’t even express; to what depths, Your love is trying to take my heart? But this one thing I know, my heart is truly in love. Your love is the poetry that moves my soul, the true emotions that have left my heart vulnerable; a wonderful place to be, within every poetic moment. I will forever let Your love speak to my heart, my soul still needs to discover; more ways to write about this poetic love. Your love is a poem, let my heart forever be the muse!

Your love is more than just words, it’s living, very active; deep within every breath of my heart. Loving You, is so much more than me writing pretty words. It’s the poetic love, that doesn’t just move; but truly inspires my soul. Let my heart be a true instrument, let Your love forever be the inspiration. My heart is on a journey, with a love that flows deep within; moving throughout the innermost parts of my soul. This love is a poem, my heart has so much more to say; about This Poetic Love!

No Doubts!

Never a doubt, my heart never doubted; not even for a nanosecond. My heart knew from the very moment, that Your love was The One. The very one my heart needed, the one my soul truly wanted; to spend every day and night, the rest of my life. They say fools rush in, my heart was never the fool; so instead I sprinted, right into the depth of Your love. I never once doubted, that Your love would be there to catch me. If I totally fell, forever in love; my heart to You I freely give!

Yes, I never doubted; to first doubt, fear would have to be a factor. Besides, what is there to truly fear, but fear itself? From the very day my destiny, and Your heart collided; was the day my doubts were no more. My heart and mind finally came into agreement, for the very first time. My heart is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but this one thing is perfectly clear. Your perfect love, casts out all fears; within my mind, my heart never doubted!

No, without a doubt I definitely knew. The first day when my soul felt the burning sensation, the day my heart burst into flames; to be forever consumed by Your love. With every gaze into Your heart, my soul was being consumed. No Doubt, that every day I wake; Your love is going to do it, all over again!

iRemember!

iRemember, iRemember the day; I know the year. iRemember, “lest we forget, war is never the answer!” On the 11th day, of the 11th month in 1918; One Hundred years this day, World War One ended, “we all need to remember the day!” So, on the 11th day, of the 11th month; remember to take a moment. Put your life on pause, to take a moment of silence!

For some it’s seems only a moment in time, but for so many others. It’s still a lifetime of hurt, pain, loss; so we must never forget. Yes, please remember, that it‘s but a moment of our time; to show that time can stand still, just for a moment. This is a moment to remember, to honor the fallen heroes; those who made the ultimate sacrifice!

iRemember another day, a war was raging within my soul. God’s love fought for my soul, the day He won my heart. His love no longer had to fight for my soul, my heart surrendered to His love. Every day I take a moment, a moment to reflect. A moment to honor; The One, who gave His life for All. Jesus’ love defeated the darkness, His love has never lost a battle!

“You will not need to fight in this battle. Stand firm, hold your position; see the salvation of the Lord on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem.’ Do not be afraid, do not be dismayed. Tomorrow go out against them, the Lord will be with you.” ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭20:17‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Broken!

If Your intentions are to break me, then there’s no need for You to utter another word; I am absolutely broken. If it’s more of Your love I need, then therefore I want it all; Your love is the glue that fixes a broken heart. If it’s deeper within Your love I need to go, then take me deeper; deeper than I’ve ever been before. I don’t even care if I am absolutely crushed, by the depth of Your love; broken within Your love, means closer to Your heart. And when I fall much deeper in love, how could I ever again; truly be broken hearted?

If You think my heart is just blowing smoke, then fan the flames within my soul; if You need me to be absolutely consumed by Your love. Go ahead, break my heart; for what breaks Yours. Broken into a thousand tiny pieces, if it again needs to be gracefully broken; forever at the foot of Your heart. Your love will surely be there, right there to pick up every single one of the broken pieces; if a thousand tiny pieces won’t nearly be enough? Then won’t You please tell me the absolute truth; has my heart truly become hard, too rigid; that it needs to be broken, into a million little pieces. Does it need to be completely shattered, before it could truly know; that I have been totally broken?

If I am not yet completely shattered, then why has my broken heart; once again brought me to my knees? Maybe I’m trying to rely on my own strength, to pick back up the pieces? Perhaps I just need to go back into the fire, until I am absolutely consumed; by the light of Your flame. If this is so, then won’t You let Your love forge within my soul; a brand new heart. So transformed, that You can see a very clear reflection; a true reflection of Your love. Broken is where I sometimes find myself, but Your love will never let me stay broken. The brokenness, is a place my heart sometimes needs to be. Just to remind me, in whom; I can forever find my strength!

Power, and Strength!

• I have the power to think, to act; but power with misguided strength, is not true power!

• I have the power to pull down, but do I have enough strength; to know how to build up?

• I have the power to speak my mind, but it takes a greater strength; to have the will to restrain that power!

• I have the power to keep silent, but do I have the strength to speak up; when the truth needs to be heard?

• The power of positive thinking is good, but the strength to always think positively; that’s the key to affect a positive change!

• There’s absolute power in the words, that comes out of my mouth; but I’ve gained such an unbelievable amount strength, just knowing how to listen!

So therefore, let me lend you my ear, let me listen to your heart. Knowing how to hear a heart other than your own, demonstrates strength of character. I’ve learned how to tap into the Power, knowing where my true Strength is found; has opened my heart to that true source of Power. Knowing how to use that power, the love that emanates within!

Overwhelmed some days becomes my heart, by a love so amazing; the absolute perfect balance of Power and Strength. The power I need, when my strength feels gone. The strength I need, when I need the power to keep going. God’s love is that unbelievable Strength, the love with so much Power; the love that is my breath!

On The Other Hand!

Every day I count the reasons, the many reasons why; my heart has stayed in love. But for some reason, I seem to lose track; whenever I get to the one millionth reason. Maybe it’s because, the one million and one reason; may just blow my mind? On the other hand, a blown mind; would never truly feel like a blown moment. One of those unbelievable reasons, is the moment my heart got to know You. The moment I got to hold Your love, ever so close to my heart. But on the other hand, maybe it’s truly because; Your love forever holds my soul, held so close to Your heart?

So many hearts, they just want to play games. Your love is not a game, but I love to play; as one with the heart of a child. Tag Your it; the love that want to relentlessly chase after my heart. But on the other hand, I can’t even HIDE; what’s in my heart. Your love, And nothing else; that’s what my heart so desperately SEEK. Your love has always been the one thing, but more and more I’ve come to realize; You’re the only love, that will truly ever know my heart. The one to whom I’ve forever given my heart. The One Love, the endless love; that won’t stop slow dancing with my heart. A love that holds my heart, within a forever embrace!

I don’t want to chase after the day, and I have no intentions of running with the night. But on the other hand, I would absolutely run all day, chase after Your heart; until the very day, once again becomes the night. On one hand I could stay put, be the man; in name only. But on the other hand, forever be a man; after Your own heart. Within Your heart is where I see my passion, in Your love is where I find my desire. So, what passion do You see; when You look into my heart? Can You see Your love, does it permeate within? On the other hand, can Your love truly be seen; does it resonate through me?

I don’t want to be a heart, trying to affect change; with one hand tied behind my back. But on the other hand, how can I truly affect anything; if others can never see that it’s by Your love, and not by my hand? Yes, every day I truly count the many reasons; but there’s two distinct reasons. On one hand, and on the other hand; I see the reason, why my heart loves You so!

The Pretender!

How deep do You want to go, is there a limit to Your love; or am I the one, putting the limits on You? I will never pretend to know Your mind, but I am trying my best; to know Your heart. Some days I feel that I am Your hero, but in that very same day; I feel that I have turned into an absolute zero. So, please tell me the truth, my heart can handle the truth; how do You truly see me? I’ve got a think skin, over my tender heart. So tell me, do You see me with a loving heart, or just as a pretender?

I can be anything You want, but I already know. That You would rather see a heart, totally transformed; forever faithful. I have worn many hats, but wherever I lay my hat; that’s never truly been my home. My heart has only ever felt at home, resting safely within Your love. So therefore, I will never pretend; to just give You my heart, it’s forever Yours. I am not a pretender with my love, I will never pretend to love You; with just my lips. My heart glows much brighter, the moment I trusted; completely believed, that Your love would never let me go!

I’ve never been a slave to fear, but

I fear; that I’ve questioned my own heart at times, but I’ve never once had to question Your love. Trust can never be a true reality, if the heart doesn’t first believe; in that which it truly places the trust. My heart has been forever touched by Your love, where my belief started; my trust, forever in that love!

Within my heart I’ve never pretended to be anything, but truly grateful. Never once claimed to have perfect vision, my heart couldn’t even pretend to see straight; if not through the lens of Your love. Would not even pretend, that I’ve never once fell. At the very first encounter, it was head over heels; for Your love. So, I will never pretend; that Your love isn’t the true hero of this story. The unequivocal hero, that saved my heart. There’s absolutely no pretending, that my heart loves You so!
