I have overcome the world, take courage. A fractured mind, doesn’t have to mean a fractured heart; even a fraction of faith, is enough to move my love. Let your heart breathe through my love. With every breath, you will find the courage to believe; that you’re never alone. My thoughts are not your thoughts, but my love is your love; let my love be revealed in you. Let your soul be steadfast, let your heart be unmovable; take courage!
Hold on to your hope, watch as my triumph unfolds. Let your faith forever be in me, I’ve never lost. My love is never failing, let my strength be your constant joy; Great Is My faithfulness. What in you I have begun, in you that I shall surely finish; the triumph, your heart shall truly see. Rise each day in my victory, hold on to my promises; take refuge within my love!
My love is faithful, the love that called your heart out of the darkness; the light that shines through you, my love. Even though the night whispers, the light within will forever speak volumes. Let it drown out the darkness, let the peace within your heart be; sounds of rejoicing. Let my love be your firm foundation, the anchor that forever holds!
My love will fight your battles, my love has never been defeated; my love has never lost a battle. I AM, Christ; redeemer, overcomer, defender, conqueror. Even when the storms collide, I AM. Even when the rain seems more than your heart can truly bear, IAM. Take Courage, let your heart trust in me!
“There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory!” Luke 21:25-27 NIV
Oh heart, do you have true grit, do you hope that you have what it truly takes; to keep from falling off the edge? Go ahead, grit your teeth; it’s time to dig in, not the time to give up. Oh heart are you just going to sit at the edge of your seat, and do what grandma used to say; are you going to sit by, and do nothing? Heart you can rant about all your problems, you can completely close your eyes; pretend you can’t see, just never close your heart. Use your spiritual eyes to see, faith is still the substance; hope is still the evidence of things unseen!
Heart you didn’t come this far, to just hang on for dear life; clinging to the end of your faith? Your heart has come too far, to live on the edge; of a love that moves mountains. Over the years you’ve learned, to be as tough as nails, but you know this one simple truth. Even a nail can bend, if the blow that it receives; strikes a little bit on the edge, and it starts to bend at the depth of its core. Don’t get it twisted, the nail has already been removed. So, I will forever fasten my heart, to the truth of God’s love. And whenever the hammer falls, being on the edge; will never truly shake my core foundation!
I don’t want to be a man living on the edge, this heart of mine; is on the edge of a profound moment. Living on the edge, it can make you feel like ringing the bell; and just give up. It’s not the time for my heart to ring out, walk away from the truth; and let lost hearts, fade away into the darkness. Life can feel like a jungle, sometimes I even wonder how I keep from going under; trying not to lose my mind. I never want to become a man on the edge, on the edge of losing it all. I don’t desire to gain the whole world, I’ve already gained a new perspective; my heart has a new identity!
That’s why, I don’t live on the edge; I have a love that keeps my heart grounded. An anchor that forever holds, in the here, and the now. Why should any heart ever be on the edge, when there’s a love; that will set your heart on top of the world. No one will ever be able to drag my heart kicking and screaming, no one can ever push me over. No amount of darkness, will ever blind my heart; in an attempt to cloud my judgement. My only desire, is to fall in love again and again; with the lover of my soul. Look into my heart, catch me I’m falling; deeper in love; with You day after day. What else, does my heart; truly have to cling to?
Sometimes we believe that life won’t get better, that you can’t do better; freedom has a name. I almost believed the lie, yes; I almost received the lies. That my heart would never break free, bondage; that was the chain. But my heart found true freedom, it was within a name!
Sometimes it was the he said she said, what people said. But God, He said; there’s freedom within a name, I’m now finally free. Jesus stepped in, He broke down the barriers; His love kicked down my walls. My world changed, God lives in me. I don’t look at barriers, I don’t see walls. I’ve learned how to stay vertical, how to look up; no walls, or barriers!
That doesn’t mean that I’ve never found myself lost, even though my heart lives within the truth. They are days, when the rains fall; as you look up. Even if you don’t know what to do, you still have freedom; the freedom to choose, to not be shackled by fear. Freedom in God, means never being defeated; within His love you have victory!
My story, is now for His glory. God’s love changed my heart, His love has changed my identity; He calls me son. His power has brought me honor, where I once had shame. Yes, the day Jesus called me friend. No more barriers, my Jericho walls fell down. So, how do I forever see, how can you truly find freedom; it’s in a name!
Sickness has an end, bondage has an end; it’s within a name. If you want to feel at home, if you want to be free; there’s something greater. Call on the name of Jesus, Freedom Has A Name!
“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” John 8:36 NIV
What have I done? The question my heart has so often pondered. I was such a sinner, and You such a great love. So Why, my heart knows the When and Where; the What is the ponder. I know When my heart came face to face with Your love. You Relentlessly chased after my heart, the blessings are now running me down. What have I done, to deserve this?
The depth of Your love, I can’t even fathom; so high I couldn’t possibly see how much. The length and breadth, will take my heart a lifetime; to merely get a glimpse. How deep does it go, that’s What my heart is learning. I can’t even pretend to understand, so How could I even begin to repay? The Why, it’s beyond my comprehension!
• When I am thirsty, You alone; What becomes the water!
• When I am hungry, Your love is What I forever feast on!
• When I am weary, Your heart is What I rest on!
• When the water starts to flow from my heart, the What has truly struck a chord; it overwhelms me. What Have I Done?
Oh God, my heart wants to know; What have I done? Nothing, I have done nothing; there’s nothing I can ever do. Every day, of Your love; You choose to freely give. I truly don’t deserve, a love like this!
Lord, for years I didn’t know my own worth. Even though You died for me, I had the saddest smile, a distant heart; but You Never denied Me!
My heart was searching for answers, looking for Love and Peace; the search didn’t need any further, than within my own heart. I Looked everywhere possible, But Up; But God. I couldn’t fill my empty cup, my heart was thirsty; my soul was hungry, You Never Denied Me!
Your Love was reaching out for me, perhaps I wasn’t ready to see; maybe my heart was too blind, but now I see. You stood at the door and knocked, but I still won’t let You in. But You still Prayed to the Father for me; “help him to see, that I will Never Denied him!”
But the Father couldn’t at that point help me, I wasn’t yet ready to surrender; I wasn’t yet willing, to go on my knees. I was too strong, to know that I was weak; without the heart changing love of God. I didn’t yet have the strength, to be truly broken; But You Never Denied Me!
So, I wondered within the Wilderness, thinking I was all alone. The Journey was winding, but Jesus; You walked with me. Every single step of my lonely road, You Never Denied Me!
Lord, I’m Ready to surrender to You, I’m on My knees, Have your way in Me, Renew My Faith, I want to know My Worth! I don’t need to Search any longer! I have Your Love and Peace in My Heart, My Cup’s Running Over and I don’t Hurt anymore, All because You Never Denied Me!
Jesus, the Bible says; “You Pray to the Father, makes intercession for us!” Your Love seeks, Your love finds. You picked up the lost sheep, put them on Your shoulder, take us into Your Promise. Thank You, Jesus; You Never Denied Me!
Growing up I fought, thoughts within my mind; playing over and over within my heart. The question placed to my heart, are you truly enough? But deep within my soul, there was a voice, the only thing that drowned out my own thoughts. Small still whispers, my solace, a peace within my soul. A voice with so much strength; strong and mighty, the gentleness is what moved my heart. My soul didn’t always believe, in what I couldn’t yet see; but my heart, learning how to hear!
My silence, was the only thing; that I truly knew to be real. You see, I was a child; that spent many hours alone, I could tell you stories. They all involve the same known characters; Me, Myself, and I. Playing make-believe, that I was sometimes visible; a world I would occasionally visit, within my own heart. Some days, the struggle was oh too real; just believing, that I was truly loved. I wasn’t blind to my world, but yet still too blind to see; that my heart was forever held.
My heart couldn’t see, so how could it even believe; that a love could possibly find a heart, barely breathing within the silence? Trust and believe, that was the word resonating within my soul. The lie that I wasn’t loved, was a fruit from the old poisonous tree. My Eden wasn’t a place, but a presence; bearing much fruit within my heart. Every single lie that told my heart, that I would never measure up; fell on the Rock, my soul was now covered. My soul now has a song, a story; it’s written upon my heart!
God, remind me again who I am; I need to know? Sometimes I can’t believe, that You love me so. Give me a moment, just knowing I’m so loved; my heart needs a moment to breathe. The only thing that matters to me now, is what You think of me. In You I find my worth, in You I’ve found my identity. In You my heart has a purpose, deeper into Your heart; that’s my destiny. The depth of my heart, is more than the sum; of every high, and every low!
• You say I am loved, when I couldn’t even feel a thing!
• You say I am strong, when I thought I was too weak!
• You say I am held, when I felt I was falling apart!
• When I felt like I didn’t belong; You say I am Yours!
• You took my every doubt, in You I have my every victory!
Now all I care to know, is what You say: I am. Nothing else will my heart ever again believe, or trust. You say believe, in that; I only trust!
Today’s song inspired, is a song by Lauren Ashley Daigle; an American contemporary Christian music singer-songwriter, from Lafayette, Louisiana.
I pray that this story, a glimpse into a part of my journey; is an encouragement. Even within the silence, God knew who I was; the only father I ever knew!
My heart used to be a private dancer, dancing alone in the darkness. But then Grace found me, and my heart never again; had to dance alone. Oh Grace, if You would allow me; I want to take Your love, and put it on display. I can keep it all to myself, hold it ever so close; tucked away, within the depth of my soul. Grace Your love is such an emotional rush, how I need it; more and more. Your love touches my heart, just like a ray of sunshine; touches my skin. Grace the moment You touched me, Your love went straight to my heart. There’s absolutely no way, my soul could ever get enough of Your touch. Every single day, You just do it again!
Grace, the sheer emotions I feel for You, it’s strong. A fire shut up within my bones, a consuming fire; burning within my soul. Grace I’ve just got to let You know; Your love just won’t let my heart go, but You already know that; for You my heart sings. Your love has done something to me, what manner of love is this; my soul surely knows. My heart needs You to keep doing what You do; it’s a beautiful thing. This love is such a wonder to behold, if my heart didn’t know any better; my soul would say, it’s too good to be true. Grace, I must be under Your influence? I must be forever Intoxicated, by the constant outpouring of Your love? Before You, I’ve never had these kinds of feelings. Not until I opened up my heart, to forever receive Your unbelievable love. So I have therefore concluded, it’s Your love; that has my soul feeling this way!
Grace, everyday Your love just gets better than the day before; every day my heart gets stronger, beating faster than ever. Making me better than I was, more than I am; this all happened, the moment I trusted Your heart. Your love has done something special to my heart, my soul is happy and free. Grace Your love is such a beautiful thing, but how can it not be; when Your love is absolutely stunning. My heart grew, knowing how to be seen and not heard. Just knowing Your love, has given my heart this voice. Grace, Your love is unmerited, truly overwhelming; absolutely Amazing. I have found such peace, it’s You; Grace!
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?
Our love has been tested, through the storms of life; within this love journey. Through it all we’ve learned to trust, trust that the anchor will forever hold!
• The winds blew strong; but stronger was the anchor, to this day it still holds.
• The tidal waves came, high were the waves. But the higher the waves, the deeper went the anchor; it still holds.
• The rains were torrential, sometimes the downpour so overwhelming; but yet, the anchor still holds.
• The waters rose high, but my heart was never drowning. My heart was secure, I knew within my soul; in whom the anchor holds.
Even when our hands could not hold tight, we still didn’t lose hope. Within every moment, within every situation; our hearts were still anchored. We held on tighter than ever, the anchor was God’s love. Yes, through it all, within our weakness. Through it all, our faith remained strong; knowing that the three strands, could never be broken!
Babe, our hearts have weathered many storms; our love is still securely anchored. The storms came, to test the strength of our hearts. But the strength of our character, that’s what have fortified our love. How can two hearts ever tell how strong they truly are? If not for real test, and unyielding trials; but through it all.
Sweet lady, listen to my soul. Hear that your love is still entwined, beating with the rhythm of my heartbeat; a beat ever so strong. Your love is the reason, why through it all; my heart is still anchored, to the strength of your love!
A Love Story!
