Just Breathe And Let Yourself Be…Just His

Monday Message

Once you start falling
and get off of track
How does one get back?
How can you face the eye of the storm
When the power is out
And all around
It’s pitch black
Into the depths
Into the sinks
The sinking feelings
Of this can’t be me
This isn’t me
Because I am strong
I cannot be weak
But I’m here to say
Let yourself be
Utterly free
Of every lingering title
and need to be
Now breathe
Breathe in one more deep breath
and fall into Me
Fall hard
Fall fast
Fall deep
Deeper into the stormy seas
As you cry out for peace
You say I’m not there
But you feel that wind
That slight subtle breeze
Like the waves that roll in
And crash into the palm trees
That’s Me
I’m the calm in the storm
The One who has sworn
To love you
and to hold you
No matter what you are going through
Whether it be a bad dream
Or ultimate lack of self esteem
When the walls crumble down
And you let the waves
Pound
and pound
Darling, cry out!
Cry out to Me
and let go of the constant need
For comfort and blanketed peace
For what you will find
Is that its lacking
Unfulfilling
and self-thrilling
You are surrounded by many voices
and unnamed faces
Yet you feel alone
So alone
So deprived
What even is the point of being alive?
Darling, that’s pride
Prideful for you to feel that this world was created for you
No, I created you
The depths of the blues
The tides and the moons
Yes, I created those
and not a moment too soon
I created you here
To be self-aware
To show the world how to really care
How to really love
Show joy
And laugh with the boys
I created you to be
Exactly
Who
You
Were
Made
To
Be
 
“The Lord your God is in your midst,
A victorious warrior.
He will exult over you with joy,
He will be quiet in His love,
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.” Zephaniah 3:17
