"Birth of Hope"


Return to me

O return to hope once more

You’re not so far away - But any distance at all hurts you

Return again to hope

Be set ablaze with the knowledge of my love for you

A deep feeling of my pleasure with you - Resting In ME

That tender place where hope is born

My power whispers “possibility” to your questions and fears

You choose rest in me - And your mind becomes quiet

 

We listen for your “yes”

Together we wait for your choice, - Say yes to me again.

For it is that trust, your yes to me  - That breaths life on what is possible

And Hope ignites within you

Together we dance this dance

Your hurts and fears pull on you - I see it, I know

Still I am waiting for you

Your yes is louder than your thoughts - But still you have to choose to say it

I’ve got enough for you

Your mind knows - Your heart remembers

Still it is not easy - I see that, I know

Your yes is not cheap to me - It is everything!

And so I wait for you

Together we wait for the birth of hope once more

Your trust is beautiful to me - It’s why I made you - So that we could dance this dance together

You’re getting stronger and faster and more and more that way I’ve always seen you

 

I hear you - Your questions, the things you don’t understand

The fears that have been shot at you, have wounded you, and now accuse you - I hear them too

But I hear your yes - Still at first, a desire

And now it grows stronger

You are remembering the times before  - when my power set fire to your trust and hope exploded in your life. 

You were made for this

 

Say yes to me again

 

Return again to hope and together we will dance!

  Peace stood quietly Called to me by name An invitation Just outside the border of my chaos Mind in over-drive My effort to solve, understand and achieve           It was not an evaluation           There was no accusation           His arms were out           Palms up           An invitation Peace called to me And I could answer and go Or I could stay           Peace would not enter my swirling chaos           There was no place for him to stand           To be with Peace, I had to leave           Step out of my mess of striving           To choose Peace stood quietly And called to me by name Invitation Peace invited me to stand At the border of my mind        ...

Levels of Healing - ? -

Image
  I have recently gained new understanding of the process of healing from emotional wounding. I am passionate about the ability we all have to heal from trauma and deep pain. We need not be limited and defined by it forever. I have found that the process of healing is intentional and not merely a matter of time or “moving on”. To heal one must face the betrayal, trauma event or relationship that caused the pain and walk through the process of identifying the impact it had on them. One must grieve and be comforted. Often working through anger and disappointment is required in order to forgive and come to a place of peace. I have found that it is possible to experience freedom from the anger, shame and deep sorrow that is often the result of trauma or deep emotional wounding. I have experienced my own journey of healing from physical and sexual abuse. I have also worked through relational tensions, betrayal and loss. In all these journeys I have experienced a kind of process that i...

Freedom from Urgency

Image
  Urgency is a human thing God’s perspective eliminates all negative associations with the passing of time There is no being late or too late No stress of immediate, urgent need God knows all things – He is not surprised or caught off guard He is never unprepared!   We worry and fret Deadlines and urgency are familiar to our human experience We try to catch-up and keep-up, stay ahead of all that is required We don’t want to be late or behind Life can feel like a race Trying not to lose ground   Stress and urgency often mark our view of current time Regret and sorrow invade our view of the past While anxious thoughts tempt us to worry over the future   This is foreign to God and the atmosphere of heaven God knows and understands – but He is different than us Jesus understands Scripture tells us that He faced all that we do, and yet without sin Urgency is a human thing, an earthly reality In heaven there is no need   God’s redemptive power eliminates all regret,...
