i was crying out to my creator as i sat in a shadow
my eyes squeezed shut as i screamed high in frustration “why cant i just see you?
all i want to do is walk hand in hand with the most high king.”
for the first time since last time, courage to open my eyes in the darkness flooded through me.
and there you stood.
you held my whole not just my hand.
you had found me in the darkness because you were always right beside me.
it’s like you never left.
you really never left.
i laid down at your feet lord.
i laid my whole not just tomorrow.
you then lifted me up.
you lifted me higher.
we soared above the waves.
there i dangled in your arms, way above the shadows.
you whispered in my ear “surrender.”
to just let go.
to let it slip from my fingers so you could catch the fall.
the things i desired tumbled gracefully to your toes.
you put me down beside you and grabbed up my hands that were now free.
you lead me hand in hand into all your ways
you showed me your light that broke every shadow.
as you held my whole you gently murmured “and id do it all again, over and over.”
– jesus put lines of this on my heart since swaz. repeating them over and over in worship, proclaiming his goodness. started there still going on here. i turned those lines into a little bit of a story. a story of redemption a lot like mine. it’s taken a hot sec y’all but still he’d do it over and over. sweetest thing i’ve heard. sweetest thing i’ve believed.
