The Storm!

Your love, stormed the gates of my heart. Relentlessly broke down every barrier, with the breadth of Your love. My shifty walls went up, around my soul; but, resistance was futile. You entered in, made my heart Your home. Like if, Your love already had the master key… to my soul. Hands up, a heart so exposed; the surrender, Your love the embrace. You built up a fortress, of love so strong. A city on a hill, resting on the solid rock. Whenever the enemy attacked, nothing could conquer the love. You became, the defender of my heart; the lover of my soul. When the storms of life come, trying to blow my mind. Your love was, and is the only thing. That has ever been able, to move my heart. Rock solid, how You’ve built the love. Even in a thirty, dry eyed; soul parched world. Your presence is water, flowing… from my eyes. Refreshing my soul, filling my heart. In this life, there will be trouble. While so many hearts, are preparing to battle the coming storms? My heart is waiting, to watch You move… me again. Meet me here again, at that phenomenal place. Right next to Your heart, where my love promises to be. After, my heart has finished sailing through the blue; Your love will forever be, the treasure found!

People might wonder, how I do it; flight through it all? It’s simply this, Your love is the weapon; my heart will forever wield. The lifestyle, for a lifetime. In the Storm, I don’t lose heart. For my heart, Your love will never lose the fight. Even when my light, is eclipsed by a momentary darkness. After every single storm, Your love overwhelmingly shines. In the storm, the love reached in… to the depth, of a silent river. Pulled, on every heartstrings. The love, what gives my faith… so much strength. Your love is, the calm in what I see. Fear, doesn’t move my soul. In You, I always have my peace. A heart and soul still, anchored by Your love. Expressions of gratitude, an exemplified worth; what Your love gives to my heart. Your love never reminds, my heart of the mistakes. Instead, reinforces that the love will be… my destiny. Amazingly, gracefully; Your love became the embodiment, into me You see. More than a touch, greater than all expectations. Beyond wild dreams, Your love became the breadth; the life, in me. The Storm was fierce, but gently You’ve held my soul up. To display how Your love, still continues to transform… this heart of mine!

Posture!

Sometimes, I forget to sit up; but never forget to take notice, how much my heart leans on Your love. Sometimes, I have a tendency to hunch; but my heart never has to guess, if Your love will always be there. I couldn’t have never learned, how to not stumble so much. If You didn’t first shown my heart how to walk… gracefully. I can fix my posture, adjust my thinking; but Your love, what changed a broken perspective… within. A silent river, has a voice. A heart can breathe, but knowing what truly moves every breath; will enlighten the deeper meaning. So many, have a good posture; the pretend, that life is about well put together. When the creation precedes, the ability to truly overcome. Trying to fix brokenness on your own, is a futile exercise. You can’t work out, if a work hasn’t first been done… within. We can posture, thinking life is what gives us meaning. One thing is for sure, my heart never wants to be a slouch. Believing, that a heart can never learn anything from Your love; is just a misguided posture!

A heart, not in total alignment with Your love; a posture very much in need, of an adjustment. We can try to straighten up our act, but every trace of resistance; can be traced back, to being the wrong kind of posture. Why, we need to cut out the posturing; while walking the straight and narrow. Our heart needs to do what’s right, not pretend; it’s about the perfect posture. Strong willed, strong emotions will keep you grounded; but strength of character, needs to be part of the equation. We need to keep focus, on the core issues. Why you live, why you breathe; what love is within your heart? The kind of truth your soul inhales, determines what kind of love your heart will be waiting to exhale. A vertical posture, what helps a heart to truly know; the true depth within a soul. Prevailing, when a heart knows it’s not about the posture; but on what you stand?

Into me, what You want to see. From the outside, a good posture looks nice. But it does absolutely nothing, to straighten a true heart perspective. Life is short, the time to stand firm is now. To show a heart forever transformed, and that the true light of love… is in the horizon. You can’t truly see the Son, without knowing His love; shimmers in the moonlight. Glistens within every star, shines forever within the heavens, and bigger than the universe. It’s more than a touch, beyond just a feeling; deeper than just words. A love makes me, better than I am; more than I can hope to be. Why, should I ever need to be fixated on my posture? When this love is still so posed, forever being… my everything. A so called good posture can never ever demonstrate, a heart and soul; with an undistracted devotion. So many look back, trying to understand the true meaning of life? But, it’s not the meaning life gives you that matters; only the meaning, knowing God gives to your life!

Try Joy!

It’s free, you just need to add the right ingredient. Not sure where to get it, where to find it; if you’re going to like it? I’ve tried it, and it’s truly awesome; I know you’re going to love it too. All you have to do, get yourself some peace, sprinkle on it lots of hope, and add in some real contentment. Mix them all together, with love… for yourself. Once you’ve done all that, you will be able truly taste, and see; how joy can truly change a perspective. You can’t buy this kind of joy, you can’t even borrow it from someone else. Only your heart, and your soul can put together the right ingredient needed; to produce the sweetest tasting joy. True joy is free, the price already paid. When you know God, His love shows you how; His joy can transform heart, and soul. Only then, will you be able to share that joy, with others. Yes, from time to time we do struggle; with not having enough to share. We just need to remember, on the road called life; it’s a journey, we all have to take. The joy we seek, comes when a heart is truly fulfilled. The presence of God’s love, the only thing; that can give a soul fullness… of joy. When the heart embraces the true fullness, your soul will find; it gives pleasure… forever. Then your heart will have what it truly needs, to go help light the world. Let the power that joy brings, be the center of what fills you. With true love, hope, and abundant peace. So, regardless of what your heart has to constantly taste? Even bitterness, will never have any true flavor; when you, Try Joy… everyday!

Rear View!

The past behind, a destiny before you. Sometimes, you need to take a quick look back. Get a clear view, to see how far your heart has come. Keeping a clear perspective, will make sure heart and soul; are both looking forward to the arrival. The rear view, requires just a momentary glance… at the heart. The focus, should always be the destination; where you’re ultimately to end up, and the end of the journey? Don’t get ahead of tomorrow, today will surely need your full attention. Just so, you don’t end up ditching; all your hopes and dreams. A heart off course, is a soul fixated on the shadows; reflections, of what once was. Broken doesn’t mean, you can’t reflect… your worth. Flaws, doesn’t mean a heart not predestined. For every heart, to get safely from A, to B… contented. Turn the endless pursuing of meaningless, to the relentless pursuit of meaningful. You never have to worry about, where the rubber meets the road. If the heart truly knows who, is truly in the driver’s seat? Shotgun, a heart trying to stay on the straight and narrow; but the disconnect, the soul just tagging along… for the ride!

A mirror, reveals what’s seen on the surface. But it’s the heart that does the true revealing, who you are on the inside. You can have a light that shines, but if it’s not the right kind of light? The soul can’t help the heart navigate, which way is true? Only to become a heart and soul, heading in the wrong direction. Seeing clearly, is not just recognizing what has been revealed; but seeing what changes, still needs to take place… within. Object in a mirror, are closer than they appear. Why, you constantly have to check the blind spots. Seeing, can sometimes be deceiving; if the receiving, isn’t part of what you’ve been truly believing. The blessings cannot overtake, if the heart doesn’t know; when the time has come to accelerate, the master plan. The journey, what takes the soul to a place… of true contentment. Along the way, there will always be obstacles. Applied faith, what makes the heart overcome. Tell anyone, that tries to get in your way; you can’t stop now. My heart, and soul is heading; up the Kings Highway. A Rear View, not to see what you’ve left behind; but see how far the heart and soul has come, on the journey called life!

Song Inspired; I’m Already There!

Child, in times of desperation; let faith be more than an anthem. Hope, more than just a word. When the moment seems hopeless, when the struggle is trying; to control your own heartbeat. When the battle, is a fight just to get through; a day gone so wrong. A heart once giddy, the heart of a child; weighed down by a word. Hopeless, a heart wondering. Will it again find Hope, or Less, of the faith you once knew? The hopeless, the state… of the mind; being truly determined, to let the heart truly lead the way. It’s a shifting of the heart, into a place; where you can truly see, it’s going to be okay. The move into being… still, to let your soul just listen, to the sound of love all around. Laugh out loud, let love be… the joy found. Tears, don’t mean a heart losing. Hopeless, just a place; where My love can always be found. When the day, becomes a world swirling; the moment feeling like a hurricane. When the day, feels like it’s a heart hopelessly; twisted… up in the wind. I’m alAlready There, before your heart cries!

I’m Already There, waiting; to be your everything, in a beautiful exchange. Don’t let the thought, that my love would want to engage my heart; mean I see you as hopeless. See a loving Father, wanting to be what you need. Early to rise, healthy, wealthy; wise, making my love the only choice. Make Hope a lifestyle, embrace my love for a lifetime. To be a heart every day, waking up smiling. Turn, your heart to the heavens; therein lies a gentle whisper. Even though hopeless, can become a place found; take heart, I’m already there. Even though, the days are called all alone. Even inside the silence, of an emotional river; with no room for anyone else. When the call, coming from a lonely place. My heart, the lighthouse in the dark. My love, the light shining on me. When your soul, couldn’t make a sound. Within the stillness, His love; what a heart will hear. For me, I tell you I can see; He was already there!

Daddy, are you there. Son, when you think; our hearts are a thousand miles apart. Just take a look around, you will see me everywhere; I’m everything your heart needs me to be. I’m the sunshine, the shadow you call a friend. I’m in the beat, that moves every heartstrings; in the moonlight shining all around. Look up child, I’m the whisper, that moves in the wind. In every prayer, my love is the voice that speaks; a friend to the very end. I’m with you, always and forever. When you’re sleeping, I’m there; lying right by your side. Let my love be, the kiss upon your heart… felt deep within. Let my love be the only touch, your heart can’t seem to do without. Let it be your peace, every day, and in the night. Your heart is forever held, forever in my undying love. Let me be in your dreams, the way you’ve always been part of my heart. When, your heart seems far from me. Child, I was the one, seeking to have you close. You never have to worry about today, tomorrow; I’m already there. Don’t just feel, I need you to forever know; we share such a special bond. Beloved, all your hopes; put them within my love. Before your heart, ever needs to know my love is near; I’m Already There!

I’m Already There, was released in 2001; by Lonestar, an American country music group. One of the reasons, why I do these song Inspired. Not so much, to promote the song; but share a message I hear within. A few of days ago, this song resonated. I knew it to be a wonderful song, but didn’t know why today was day for it. But, God knew. His love is truly at work, even in times such as this. Today, I was looking up the story behind the song. Only to find out that it was written for soldiers, and the loved ones left at home. In Canada July 1st, is celebrated as its Independence Day. And with today, being the U.S. forth of July weekend. This is the perfect song, to be inspired by. To point to where, true hope is found. Show that God, is forever in the midst of everything. I’ve learned, that in everything; His love is speaking; a heart just needs to be listening. We can seek independence, but Independant of His Grace; we become hearts truly lost. Whatever, wherever we need His love to be; He’s Already There… waiting! Have a wonderful weekend!

I Get Lost!

It doesn’t matter how I try, I can’t seem to help being at a loss. Whenever I try to express my heart, it’s another moment… being utterly lost. A heart so at a loss… sometimes. The sum total, that brings it all together. Abandoning any predetermined thought, to let the heart find; what is the right direction. A heart lost, but a soul left in awe. I can write it down, but are you truly able; to read between the lines? I get lost, in a place where you can always find my heart. Most of the days, you can find me there. At times, it’s a heart breathless. A soul gasping, how I know I’m truly breathing. Even if you don’t get it, may your heart have the understand; to what I’m trying to say? I stepped off the sure, let faith bring my heart to a place. Where swept away, a soul wanting to be lost… in the depth. A place where my heart has been learning, breath is not what my soul needed; to know how to truly breathe. Lost, not out of what you see; but in a glimpse, into what my heart can find in words… to share. When, my heart gets a chance to reflect. Words, that becomes the problem; I can’t find them. Yes, I get lost!

My soul, will never be found hopeless; just a heart lost, in the moment. If you asked me years ago, could I have foreseen; finding my heart in a place like this? I would have said no, absolutely not. But it seems, a silent river has arrived; a predestined destiny, lost… within an ocean. The encounter, finding myself. A heart coming to know, what profoundly lost looks like. A heart in a good place. All my heart truly needs, all my soul is finding… being lost. In this place, it’s a heart full; the reason being fulfilled. I can bare my soul, expose what’s in my heart. But words, won’t explain being captured; within every captivating moment. Within a heart being grounded, a soul being truly free. You find yourself at a place, where you therefore have freedom; to explore what getting lost in love, truly means. A heart trying to articulate the love felt, in a heart moved to pen down… all that is heard. Words, I Get Lost!

Fun Friday; As The Months Pass!

January, oh January; on the calendar, my eyes thee as first. But, in my heart; thy love will never be first, last… ing; bitter is the diss… served cold. Thy nights are cold, but at last; January, that’s… “Much Ado about Nothing.” Within this heart of mine, abides a love; that truly warms my heart. A love that fills my soul, lingers endlessly within the depth. February, the month of my mothers birth. Without that, I would never be. Every so often, there’s a leap… into an extended blessing. Every heart, getting to enjoy another day. Year after year, the days will surely end; to start another March. Onward, onward; say bye, to your Jericho. Spring forward, the time hasn’t come; to stop, and smell roses. The kiss upon two lips, your heart has entered into a new season. In the cool of the day, the veil removed. Love in a new light, love enlightening a renewed hope. Every heart being able to breathe easier, for freedom reigns. April, her heart feels a move. A change taking place, love is in the air. Flowing down, into the innermost. Showers of love, the blessings therein. Touching the surface, but flourishing what is seen; through the coming bloom!

May, oh; may I tell you about my May flower. Her heart, stunning; so beautiful. Her love, shines so bright; shimmers, to show a mother’s love. It’s the month we wed, the very moment I said; you’re my forever. Oh, how my soul; still basking in her endless glow. Oh, Father; oh, father… time has gone; thank you, for all the years. They have come, they go; the seasons change, but Your love… forevermore. I can never stop time, with every breath; may it be a heart changed, within every season… to come. June, no one could ever mistake you, for September; confusing a six, for a nine? A change in season, will fall squarely on your shoulder. Hearts leaning into you, with such high expectations. Love, for the summertime. July, being seventh; doesn’t make it independently perfect. First the creation, perfection; what precedes all that is seen. August, the eighth wonder of the year. Not the month, you see; but what became of it. A wonderful creation came to be, my wife… is she; yes, glee. Que sera, sera; “whatever will be, will be!”

September, oh; September, within you another fall. Leaves falling, the color of love dancing; grooving to the autumn breeze. The nights are crisp, but hearts are not swayed. The days are just right, how can you argue with being alive, being able to breathe it in? Earth, Wind, or Fire; September, you’re groovy. October, the season to lean back, maybe even act a bit cool. Feeling the nostalgic vibe, the chill revisited remix. Oh, please don’t fall back; into the same old humdrum. A fish in a barrel, the love for life like water; to soothe every fear. October, yes; a time to give back, the season for true thanksgiving. November, Movember; a time for men to remember. Even the strongest man, can struggle with issues. It’s not a time to hide, but a time for growth; a moment to raise awareness. Hope found, is the fundamental reason. Why faith is the key, to help get a heart through… the tough times. December, as the months pass by; know that one thing will forever remain the same. The world would never truly understand, what is a holistic perspective; without there being a Holy birth. Emanuel, the bright morning star. The light glistening in the night, shining; to display the greatness, of the love within!

What I Owe!

Every breath, I owe You my life. You weren’t under any obligation, my debit You paid. The love You showed, why You’ve won my heart. Your love, the open invitation; make my heart, Your forever home. When darkness was the prison, grace was the key. Your love the light, shining on me. Independence, the day; Your love validated my worth. My heart, will never withdraw; let Your love be, the only redeemer. My soul made a vow, to press into You. No retreat, the value; in the surrendered. Your love painted the perfect picture, but only in the drawing closer. Can a heart truly see what was in the creation. A soul was created, to reflect the true color of love. The heart a masterpiece, painted by a deep crimson love. My heart became indebted, freedom was in a name. I don’t ever want to be in the black, knee deep in the red; under the canopy of love. Even if I don’t see it, love is… working. Building me up, moving; underneath every breath. Redeeming, that’s the quality. Profitable, what this love is. Faithful, what You are. Excess love, ever increasing; when my heart learned how to trust. My fundamental commitment, no emotional withdrawals, and never doubt the love!

Your heart, doesn’t owe me anything; but Your love gives everything, my heart will ever need. Thank You, for letting my heart borrow against Your love. When it was a soul, deep in… borrowed time. Again and again, whenever my heart needed a friend; Your love never denied me… anything. How can I ever repay, when the cost was so great? The price paid, the debt forever forgiven. You made the sacrifice, so my soul could truly be free… to thrive. Kindness, the undisputed currency. So much greater, than silver and gold. What I Owe, can never be repaid. Give me forever, to show a truly grateful heart. Like sand through an hourglass, time will fade. But not the moments, my heart, and Your love… gets to cherish. At the end of days, it’s a higher return; when the reciprocal, begets the return. The love, all my heart. All the passion within, all the accumulated desire; what I give back. A heart once bankrupt, now redeemed by a choice made. A soul now in a place, positioned to go; from glory to glory. A heart in a place, where love is forever found, and mercy reigns. Tic, Tac, Whoo. Your love has positioned my heart, to forever be on the winning side… of greatness!

What I Owe, that my soul can define. But, my heart can’t seem to find the words; to make this be easily explained. It’s a conundrum, my soul calls this love a treasure. But my heart, knows it as such a priceless love; both equally true. I had options; invest, or live wild… but free? But my soul, didn’t want to miss out. It’s not about a prosperous future, but knowing the true… predestined destiny. My heart in a place, where fear has become absolutely powerless; in the here, and now. Within a river so deep, and so wide; within the endless overflow. Where you’re filled, with so much peace; hope forever found. Finding an overwhelming love again and again, and the depth untold. To know the breadth, and experience what it is. Where death has no hold, through an inherited release. Only, if my soul could truly put it into words? Truly come up with just one thing, to explain what my heart is struggling to articulate? Oh, that would be Amazing. So, where did I meet this extraordinary love; At the Cross. And, What I Owe, Everything… I am!
