Protect your piece & opt out of distractions ~AR

Monday Message

How many notifications to you get a day…from all forms of media?

​Thanks for joining us for Monday’s Message with Abigail Rice and Trench Classes
United. Today’s message is a great reminder that a lot of times, we choose our
distractions.

In a world full of notifications pulling at you to opt in
You must learn how to turn the notifications off and opt out
Protect your peace
This world needs you more than ever
To keep vigilance
And stay in prayer
On your knees

Humble yourself
Asking Lord, please
I want so badly for You take this cup i have been given
But i know right now You are simply asking me to sit in it

This uncomfortable feeling
The false lights
and noise building
My body yielding
My Soul fighting
To keep on trying

Sit in it

This uncomfortable pit
Your breath taken
Your body shaken

Live in it
and don’t for anything give in
You are so much stronger than this

Your roots deeper
The valley greater
The darkness whispers
Let’s break her

Your faith wavers

Sit in it

This isn’t it
This uncomfortable abyss
There is so much more than this

His watching eye
Peeping through the clouds of the night
There to remind
That He painted these skies
and this moment in time
Is just a small blip
In a story so much greater than this
So the question is

Can you sit in it?

As the clouds ever so slightly shift
Revealing an orange sky
Of brilliance

Can you sit in it?

Can you begin again?
Grow again?
Start over again?

As He stretches you so thin
and you begin to question
Your importance

Remember this -

All He asks is for you to sit in it
and let the true work of HIS hands
Move and shift
As you experience the true glory
His true gift-

A life fully lived
A life with Him

Here is where you sit in it
and let the reality of eternity begin…

“For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison,
as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen
are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:17-18
