Life beckons us to stretch…to do emotional/spiritual Yoga ~KE

Monday Message

Have you ever attended a Yoga class? It can be frustrating and exhilarating all at the
same time. It requires you to stretch in ways you think are for animals only.
Thanks for joining us for Monday’s Message with Abigail Rice and Trench Classes United.
Life is like that, stretching us beyond our own imagination. When life requires you to
stretch to you break? Today’s message is a great reminder on how to stretch
emotionally and spiritually.

Stretch
Stretch your boundaries
Stretch your mind
Begin feeling alive
Once more
Again
A sliver
A slice
Light
Creeping in
Stars begin to dim
To Your beauty
Your grace
No human can fathom
The brightness of Your face
But with faith
We dare to move
As you shift mountains
Just to prove
You are God
Almighty
Powerful
Above all
And with all
Transcending time

Transcending the fall
Of humankind
Your masterpiece
Has forgotten it’s feats
Leavings this world
Shattered
No peace
Yet there You are
Bold power
Standing tall
Taller than the evergreen trees
You have so perfectly weaved
Golden hues
Doused with green leaves
Don’t leave
Stay here
Stay near
We need You now
Calming the fear
The trembling
Weak knees
Our hearts bleed
Pouring out
Begging, Lord, please
Save them
Take me
For I am
Unworthy
Of Your love
Of Your grace
The starlight beaming
Blinding beneath Your omnipotent face
Yet you hold me
Warmth
Embrace
As embers dance
To the fire within
Lord, take me from this place
Stretch your hand
Open palms
Lord, You are the still
The quiet
The calm
Let us remember who we are

Your children
Your mothers
Your fathers
Your brothers
Your people
Your army
Your bride
& for You
We give our lives
