To Die To The Flesh Is To Live

Monday Message

What would we give up
For one last moment
One last touch?
 
A lot, I presume
To let go of that feeling
Of being trapped in an iron box
 
No way in
and no way out
 
The keys at the bottom of the ocean
and the only way to find them
Is simply to drown
 
So drown it out
Every thought
Every sound
 
The negative talk
That swarms around
Feeding your soul
Until it seeps into your bones
 
Where do you go?
 
I pray you go home
I pray you find the light
In the darkest of nights
I pray you find His Sword
and continue to fight
 
I pray you let go
and continue to die
 
Die to yourself
This flesh
This worldly life
 
The beasts of the field
They gnarl
They bite
Attacking on all sides
 
and at the bottom of the ocean
There you will find
The key to all hope lost
The key to unlock His mystery divine
 
His name
Holy Ghost
 
The gentle nudges
The quiet whispers
When the battle is raging
Stop
Breathe
and listen
 
This is the moment He has prepared you for
Now walk
Walk through that door
 
The box is unlocked
The chains have been broken
The past is merely a moment
A chapter in your story
and now He gets the glory
 
What would you give to feel that freedom?
What would it be like to see the wind
and touch the rain?
 
In the midst of the storm
You dance
In the darkest of nights
You shine
 
Everything you've lost
Everything you've given up
Every turn you have taken
Every heart you felt breaking
Led you here
 
Now take that key
and be free.
 
“For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world the
He [even] gave up His only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in
(trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost)
But have eternal (everlasting) life.” - John 3:16
