Just the way You want me!
Broken before you
My heart fully exposed
It is barely pumping
Colorless with blemishes
With Possible infections
Yet, you smile At it
And Love this very heart fully
Beautifully Broken
You are not in a rush to
change me
You gently persuade me
of truth
Dispelling the lies
one by one
The life you freely
speak over Me
Cleanses Me
I have no objections!
It is my intention to stay
Even when I don't feel
broken
Your love sustains Me
It is because of You
that I breathe
and have my being
It is for you my heart beats!
The longer I stay
The stronger my Heart becomes
The color is fully returning
Your oxygen enlivens
every vessel
You gently kiss the wounds
I am comforted
I am safe
I am crying and sitting
in a puddle of tears
The tears of hurt now
have become tears of Joy
The joy of knowing and
getting to know You more!
The joy of being fully
loved and cherished by You
The joy of getting to fall
deeper in love with You!!! 💞
Where two hearts collide
I am all Yours
You are fully mine
Beautifully Broken You
became, not to just
save me from
my brokenness
But to be able to
truly sympathize with Me
and heal my wounds
Because You Yourself
were healed of Yours!
Forever Alive
Forever Free
Forever my Beautiful
What bright color elephant can you picture in your head? Let me guess, pink or blue? Or maybe I’m wrong. Bet you are thinking of it now!
Well, all this to talk about fleeting thoughts and how although they can be short-lived, they can help shape or break our future! We all have different moral compasses, and for me, I choose to base my morals on the Word and Spirit of God.
When a fleeting thought of lust, temptation, or negativity comes, I have a choice to entertain that thought or not. Have I fallen prey to these thoughts? I have at times, but what’s funny is they usually come at my weakest moments!
Fleeting thoughts will come and go, but it is how we manage them that matters! If a constant thought begins to torment you, begin to talk to God more and look up scriptures that will help! Fasting is another option! The enemy hates when we pray and even fast! You want to know why? Because it really does work! If they don’t subside, then share it with a trustworthy friend! Once that is done, have them pray with you.
Our mind can be a battlefield, but there is a Mighty God who helps us win! He died to make us victorious! He rose again so that His glory can fill the earth through us! So even when the enemy throws a fleeting thought your way… through Christ, you can WIN! He will bring you from glory to glory!
The Lord recently told me to spend one hour of each day alone with Him for the rest of my life. Wow! “What a challenge, Lord,” I thought to myself. But, I decided that it would be worth it! I have to tell you, it was hard at first, but the more I spent time with Him the more I wanted to. I realized that every morning, I would think of the the appointed hour I would spend time with Jesus. My mind changed from, “I’ll just go about my routine and see what happens,” to, “I will not let this day go by without making time for Jesus.”
Recently, a day went by when I didn’t set aside that hour to spend with Jesus, and instead let the busyness of the day get to me. I realize that as I didn’t spend time with Jesus that day that I had a negative attitude and had crazy thoughts. One of the thoughts that came to mind was, “This Spring Break, I’m going to just relax and maybe not even care about spending time with the Lord every single day.” As I think back on that day, I realize how sad I was and how much I truly NEED Jesus! I cried out to Jesus with all I had the next day with sorrow in my heart. I asked Him to purge my heart and remove every evil thing inside of me.
Then I asked Him something I’ve never asked Him before; I said, “Do not pass me by, Lord! Please, do not pass me by!” And Jesus responded back quickly and said, “I will never pass you by…..just don’t pass me by.”A clear vision came to me of Jesus standing there in the middle of the room watching my every move with His arms open. He was waiting for intimacy with me. I saw myself passing Him by in the busyness of the day and not even stopping to look into His beautiful face. Not even a moment to walk into His warm embrace!
My next request to the Lord was, “Lord, let me never pass you by!” Not only did I ask Him that, but I committed to spend every single day with Him! Its not His responsibility to spend time with me, it is my responsibility to accept His open invitation to sup and dine with Him. As I got into that place of intimacy with Jesus, I began to just worship Him and you know what? It was the best time I’ve ever had in my life! I began to think clearly and I had peace of mind and joy in my heart, because I decided to make Him my priority!
Can you imagine Jesus right there in the middle of the room, waiting for you to meet with Him? Yet, you go about your busy day just passing Him by. Why do we let the most important time of the day slip us by? Why do we pass up the most important relationship by for things that will fade away?
He is our only NEED! He is always there offering you His love and His guidance. How can you better deal with problems? His presence! His word! How can you be free from your past? Jesus’ presence! His presence has the power to transfrom and restore! How can you find grace, peace, joy, satisfaction? Jesus! Sex will not do it. A spouse or any other person will not do it! Job security will not do it. Shopping or material things will not do it. Money will definitely not do it. Theology or knowledge will not do it! NOTHING but Jesus!He is more than enough and there is none like Him!
We need Him more than ever before! Time is short and we don’t have time to pass Him by! The hour is drawing near when His true worshippers will arise and He will come quickly! We must come back to our first love! RETURN to Your first love!
He says to you, “My love, I wil never pass you by!” So, dear children of God, please do not pass Him by!
Hello from the …..inside…..of this constantly changing, and at times Crazy world! So many deaths and tragedies, yet also many babies being born and great events as well! Many say we are in the last days, and things will get worse! But even the Word of God says that where sin abounds, grace even more abounds! If we are in the last days, then we are also in the bride of Christs’ end time revival! We must rise up and take our place to help see souls saved and change the world for His glory!
We must get fired up in His presence and march through the craziness of life! We must remember that ONLY Warriors come out of wars! We go through hard times so that our character is sharpened! We must not let people or events keep us from moving forward toward the plans God has for us!
He has more plans for our lives than we can even imagine, and there are NO limits! Let’s continue to run after Jesus and never limit Him or ourselves!
Let’s become the warriors and royal heirs that stand up for righteousness and for HIS glory! Warriors who are willing to do all they can to gather the lost to Christ, even to the point of death!
