Selfishness at the Core.
So afraid of loosing oneself,
that we cannot give up ourselves
to be there for another.
This is a common phenomena,
baffling yet sad and sorrowful.
More and more I realize there
is nothing good in me, apart from God.
In our sin nature, there is only sickness.
The only way out of it, of ourselves, is
reaching into the heart of the Father,
where love is. It is in Him, that we find life.
We were made for relationships, yet
our very bent is to stay out of them,
fixed on ourselves and our desires.
This is truly a dead end!
Jesus said, "I have made ALL things new."
Every day life is a new start in Him.
There is simply nothing going on without Him.
Nothing that is of any value or significance.
We are saved by the blood of the Lamb.
It is only His sacrificial blood that He
poured out for humankind, that we have a
chance to live a new life, one of Love and Kindness.
The Scriptures say, that if anyone thinks he is
without sin, he is lying to himself and living in darkness.
The only real everlasting Joy and Hope in this life
is to place all of our trust in the One who did it all for us!
Profound creations come from waiting.
It's in the waiting, that we are most ripe
for fresh revelations and breakthroughs!
I have learned to wait, when once it was
very difficult. It's a maturing process
I believe. Much fire brings the ability to wait.
This road has not been easy, but I can surely
say I am not what I once was. I am so much
better, and yet, there is still more progress to come!
If Love is truly Love, we cannot toss it away
as if it is dispensable. We want to stop the pain,
but moving through the pain with God's help,
we can then grow into who we are destined to be
in Him! Shortcuts never bring us there. Selah.
When love is true
we have no control
over this fact.
Two hearts drawn
together as one.
One Heart.
It beats like thunderous storms.
Desperate for the connection of His own.
It teaches me what is truly in my heart
and I surrender to destiny.
I've tried to put our love behind me,
but to no avail. So many years have passed
and it's as if my heart was hidden away and locked up.
I find myself "surprised" that my love for you
is still intact, as if it was frozen in time. I thought
it was destroyed and I could live without you.
Now I have discovered it remains and I must surrender
to it. The very essence of Love we have no control over.
It simply IS. Selah.
