O. C. D

If I said that I’m constantly trying to change my way of thinking, just so my heart can be in the position; to truly be everything it needs to be. Would everyone think that sounds a bit dramatic, or that my kind of thinking is a bit over the top? My heart will never be perfect, but whenever my soul gets moved; the positioning of my heart, feels absolutely perfect. Sure, my mind might be down with O.C.D; but God’s love, is what changed my heart!

The obsessive-compulsive disorder, is the name that becomes the sticky side of this label; I know a name, that covers labels. So no one should ever try to put me in a box. Slap a label on my heart, thinking they have my heart figured out. I may be obsessive, with trying to have a clean heart; nothing I do, will ever be compulsive. I’m just trying to get to the heart of what matters; keeping my heart keenly focused, on God’s love. I admit, I do have an irresistible urge; to make sure that my heart is absolutely right, with God!

How can anyone ever truly call this a disorder? Is it because I’m just not willing to compromise my heart, or accept a lower standard? Call it what you will, I will allow my heart to be shifted daily; until it’s forever lined up with the truth. This not a state of mind factor, but absolutely a state of heart; positioning. Yes, I absolutely do have an uncontrollable desire to fix; the things that are just not right, within my heart. For me, it’s never been about getting it perfect; but about adjusting my thinking. God will do the rest, with His love!

My heart is Constant, constantly seeking and searching; for ways to improve. Day after day I’ve come to realize, that it’s God’s love; that truly compels my heart. My heart is flexible enough to give all, but all the pressure in the world; will never cause me to change my belief system. I will forever be a square peg; no matter how much others try, my heart will never fit into a round hole. Being Over the top will never be obsessive, when it’s the repositioning that truly Counts. This can be seen as normal, when we truly learn that this is not about perfection. But how to love, with just the little Details; we so often overlook!

The Well

Your love is the rain that fills, the rain that floods; the well, deep within my soul. My heart is open to receive, your love is the bounty. Rain down, rain down your love over and over. Fill my soul with your rain, make my heart know it’s well.

Your love fills my heart with so much hope, faith is the true substance; peace is the feeling. Such a wondrous rain, refreshment for my anxious soul, my heart is well.

Trust, my heart shall forever trust. All my expectations, all my true desires; my satisfaction, is just your rain. Rain down your love consistently, pour out your rain frequently; I need the rain, to be well.

Fill my heart with your essence, fill my soul with your presence. Felt from head to soul; the well, forever open to receive. Fill me until your love rises, rises up from within my heart. Blessed, will forever be depth of soul; well within my soul.

Come drink, have your fill. My heart is a brick house, but my soul needs every bit of your tender rain. Your love is what makes my heart feel complete, my void it fills. I am whole, your love gives my soul true depth. My heart overflows from the rain; I Am, Well.

You Are Everything!

You are Alpha, Omega, first and last; where love began, Your love will never have an end.

You are Master, Savior, King. The Glory among us, the glory that forever surrounds us.

You are Peace, the Prince of; stillness of heart, will forever be our peace.

You are our Strength, we shall stand strong within that strength; with the heart of an overcomer.

In Jesus, that’s where the power is; the power to do anything. To Him we are everything, in Him we have the power to be anything; make His love be your everything. Jesus, our world needs You; You are Everything!

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Fun Friday; Humorous Expression!

My heart knows how to crack a few jokes, but I’m not here to just clown around; I’ve truly got a story to tell. From time to time I will give you a nice chuckle. My jokes are not fancy, and I would never make the mistake of calling my wife NANCY; DREW the line there. I like a good mystery, so tell me everyone. Does the love within my heart seem genuine, or a mystery; that needs to be solved?

Enough joking for a second, I have a serious question. Can someone please tell me; is it duck season, or rabbit season? Shoot, I don’t even consider myself funny; but I do get a kick, out of making people laugh. Yeah, I can be silly at times, and I’m not even from Philly. Honey, slap me if you think I’m totally FRESH. I just want to be your PRINCE, Charming will forever be your love!

Poke me in the eyes, if you think I’m acting like a Stooge. It’s my heart, that sees your love perfectly; 20/20, you’re the vision. I’ve never claimed to be a Superman, or even a Casanova; but in my eyes, you will always be a Superwoman. So answer me this question, would you have the strength to keep a straight face? If I said that your love is sweet like Candy; Girl, would you just break out in tears, of joy? Girl don’t even blush, your heart already gave you away; the moment your love smiled at me!

So riddle me this; if every time your love surges throughout my heart, and made me giddy; would that mean your love is truly electric? I’m not a joker, so therefore my love will never be a joke; my love is absolutely serious. Sometimes I just want to see you smile, and make you happy; I’m all smiles on the inside. The joke is truly on all those people, who said this love wouldn’t last. Thirty years strong, funny; seems like just yesterday!

I don’t just want to make you laugh out loud, my every intention is to make your heart sing; lay back, it’s Summertime. This is not just a play on words, they say that laughter is therapy; for the soul. Come lay on my heart, let me listen to your soul. My heart is Sunny, and everyday I get to Cher my heart; because I Got You Babe. When the curtain closes, your heart will still be center stage. This is an act of my love, expressions; your love has always been the muse!

  • Hi everyone, so, I just introduced you to a bit of my humorous side. Right now I’m planning to do this once a month, probably on the last Friday. Tell me if you enjoyed it, and what you think of a Fun Friday post.

Time; The Precious Moments!

My dearest time, we had an appointment to meet at twelve o’clock, but you were no where to be found. My own time got busy, and I only took my eyes off You for just a second; but now it’s 12:04. Maybe I should have told You, that I was going to be late. Maybe then You would have waited, but I know better. You will relentlessly chase after my heart throughout time, but it’s my heart that needs to be truly willing; to change. Your love is always moving, but it’s my heart that wanted to stay the same. Change is never easy, but absolutely necessary; to affect true growth!

Now I can truly see, that even when my heart seemed to be wide open; precious moments within my time were still missed opportunities, my heart blinked. Nevertheless, I’m truly sorry; that I didn’t try to seize every single moment. Time, it doesn’t matter how hard I’ve tried; my mind still lost focus, of You. Even the slightest hesitation, is still a moment to truly reflect. It was never about the mind keeping focus, but about the heart; and times spent focused, on You!

Time, I truly didn’t mean to let the love for you just slip away. Even though it’s Your absolute right to move on, to seek a heart ready to appreciate Your worth. Your time is still spent moving towards my heart. I don’t ever want my heart to be stuck within another moment in time, the focus should always be the here and now. Time after time I get to breathe, because Your love gives me time. Another day for my heart to realize. That this moment in time, is all we truly have; tick tock!

Father of time, how I forever see Your two outstretched hands. Moving, to ensure that we can still have moments to cherish; moments to truly have and to hold dear. I’ve never worried about the number of times spent, but the blessings that have truly benefited my heart; from the times together. Turn back the time, give my heart a do over; the time spent will truly be better. I will focus more on the number seven, that’s perfect; luck will never be a contributing factor, love was meant to be intentional!

Father, I pray that we truly remember. That the time we spend focused on You, is the only time; that truly matters!

The Air!

My heart wants to tell a thousand stories, of a love so precious. Precious as the air, to make my heart breathe. A love that is my breath; life. I breathe deeply, to gain a deeper truth; found within every breath. But this love is more than just life; it’s everything, the air. With every breath, overwhelmed is just the start. Amazing, would never be the end; this love is my air!

My soul just can’t seem to believe, that it has to play second fiddle to my heart. My heart is the vessel that breathes, but my soul is what’s being forever moved. This love is that of a gentle feeling, moving my heart in and out. A gentle movement, coursing through my lungs; rushing into my soul, blowing the mind. Exposing that my heart, is being moved by the beauty of this love. I can’t even stop my heart, every breath; becomes my air!

Flowing gently across the tip of my heart, my soul gets moved; by the sheer gentleness of this love. A soft gentle whisper, the stillness has always been my soul; unforgettable, that’s just the feeling. This love is the gusto within, loving is simply a breeze. Can you truly see, that it’s the air I breathe. Every single breath, my heart takes; will be the air that sustains my soul. The seen, but unseen; whispers within my heart, Your love is my air!

How can I breathe without air, this love is within my heart; the very life within my soul. My love, undeniable; this love, unexplainable. I just can’t seem to put it into words. Simply put; You are my air, so my heart moves!

The Overcomer!

The battles you face, they may plague your mind; but they will never defeat your heart. You are the victor, not a victim. You can have the victory; the faith within, that’s your overcomer!

The mountains you see, though they stand in the way; your heart can still rise above. Let your faith soar above, that which clouds your heart. Conquer your fears, even if it’s a faith so small. Activate your faith, your heart is more than a conqueror; faith makes you an overcome!

If your faith only reaches to the sky, let God’s love fill the gap. Let His love show you that you are a star. Let His love be the universe, that surrounds your world. Let His love make your heart an overcomer!

If you find yourself in a valley, let God’s love be the strength within your heart. Don’t let the shadows be your focus, cast away the fears; the shadow is only a reflection. Make hope the light, that shines the brightest within the darkness!

Overcome with the power within, overcome with the faith deep down. Anchor your soul with a thankful heart; be the overcomer, you are!

“You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”

1 John‬ ‭4:4‬ ‭NIV

A Voice!

I have a voice, I will no longer be seen, and not heard. I will speak my mind, will anyone be able to hear my heart. I want to be a voice for those who have no voice, speak for those who cannot speak for themselves; mic check one two. The time has come to no longer be silent, the silence has become absolutely deafening; the injustice, hearts are being silenced. Beat your hearts strong, beat your hearts loud; one voice!

I will be a voice for those crying out in the wilderness, the wilderness within their own hearts and minds. I will rise up early, voice be heard; this is the day. I will speak life into the darkness. With my one heart, with my one voice; it’s about one love. I have come in peace, not to alienate hearts; to make a difference. The hour has come to speak up, to speak out. To get off my chest, that which truly burdens my heart!

This is the moment, the hour is truly at hand; I will not let another second just go by. For time would never think of just favoring me, or simply stand still. Even though, I have been such a faithful companion; with the precious time we have. Time has a destiny to fulfill, my heart is destined to fill; hearts and minds with truth, hope. This time my voice shall not be forfeited. The world truly needs to know, that time was never on their side!

I’ve truly had enough time to clear my throat, but if I should happen to lose my voice? I will still never truly be silent, time will still have a story to tell. Second by second, minute by minute; time shall no doubt prove to the whole world. That the days of our lives, are yet within an hour glass; that moves through the sands of time. So be still my soul, be steady my heart. Open up thy mouth, speak the truth, but with love. Speak firmly, but gently; speak with a clear voice. Be bold with your words, but forever humble with the delivery!

So I will wear my heart on my sleeve, hearts still need to see; that the voice, is my heart. One heartbeat, can move a mouth to speak, the truth from within. But if all hearts spoke as one voice; we can forever move nations to hear, the words within. I have a voice, but what good is a voice? If it’s just a silent instrument, that has not yet learned; how to speak from the heart. From my heart to yours, I am not The Voice; I am just a voice, for a time such as this. I have a message; let love abound, let freedom ring!

Rendezvous!

My heart knows Your love, and my soul loves Your presence. Spending time alone; love truly abounds, within our secret place. A rendezvous, to feel Your presence move throughout my heart. A rendezvous by any other means, would never be as sweet; if my heart wasn’t as close as possible, to Your love. I have the meeting place, now and forever is the time. You have never disappointed, Your love is always on time. It’s our secret place, nobody there; just You and me. The fire is burning, crackling is the flame. My heart has never been scorched, but yet; my soul wants to be completely consumed. Heart on fire, ignite the flame; this is our secret rendezvous!

It doesn’t matter how hard life gets. I know I can always lean on Your heart, to find strength within Your love. Whenever I feel alone, Your heart is my hiding place; the love I cling to. Rendezvousing with Your love, over and over; forever and always, within the secret place. I don’t ever want to be alone, just swept away; by the lover of my soul. You’re the love that burns within, passion throughout. Fire and desire, deep within my soul. Your love is the presence, moving within my heart. The breath that moves, the air within my lungs; the presence, so undeniable!

Next to You, there’s no other; nothing can compare, to You. When Your love first rendezvoused with my heart; it was a privilege, my absolute pleasure. Your love has been my greatest joy, getting to know Your heart; priceless. My heart knows ten thousand reasons, why it won’t stop; why this will never stop, being our secret place. But it’s no longer a secret, the world is getting to see Your love. iWrite, my heart is being exposed; Your love is on display. Perhaps they, too; will want to have their own secret rendezvous?

I Love You Lord, with all my heart. I’m truly struck by Your love; how about another secret rendezvous, within my heart!
