ADD TO MY FAVORITES
Darkness surrounds me.
I feel alone here.
Coldness clings to my breath
as I sigh deeply and
lie motionless and aching.
Sinful
Battle lines were drawn.
clanging swords
flaming arrows
blood stained earth
confusion and helplessness
Guilt and shame
Charred
exhausted
surrender
peace
Where am I?
What happened?
Is anyone there?
Can you hear me?
Denial
Blurry eyes open seeking
looking for a point of reference
something to jog the mind
clear the head of this fog.
Awareness
OH, no!
Did I do that?
Why did I let it out?
What can I do now?
Move
I must move.
Struggling
Fighting
Seeking
Light
I need light.
Reaching
Striking
This flame burns so low.
How can I see?
I need more light.
But, how?
Yes, I hear it.
Singing softly
Fog lifting
Tears staining
Worship
I will lift my voice
to worship you
my King
for you are my God.
Upon my knees
at His feet
light grows
sight restored
Hands lifted high
strength returning
wounds healing
cleansing
And He speaks
Fires of sin brought you low
Anger raged
became inflamed
Lives were charred.
My fire purifies.
I will burn away
refine your heart
make you new.
I AM a consuming fire.
Come to me
surrender to my flames.
Don’t be a fire fighter.
Let my Holy fire fall.
Quench not my Spirit.
Be consumed by me.
You are my beloved one.
