Indeed, I come in glory. You are right to worship me in fear and trembling. I am your God. I am your King.
Come before me and your sin will be exposed and burned up. Nothing unclean can stand before me. I cleanse you and purify you with my own blood.
There’s nothing you can offer me that is worthy. Nothing. I desire a clean heart. I desire surrender.
Leave your intentions at the door. Come into my presence and bow down. In total surrender will you find victory and joy.
The morning has been tough. I have seen it. The day dawns and your hope withers. I know it for I hold your heart in my hands. I see your heartbeat. But let this dawn be the day you surrender completely to me.
It is a delicate walk and I tell you, you cannot do it alone. You cannot do it without me. Leave the cares of the world behind and walk with me. I will surprise you, because the way is not what you had determined in your heart. It is so much better. My way is filled with milk and honey. My way will delight you.
Let go of it. Let go of the cares of the world. Come on, let it go. It is only I. Only I can satisfy you. Only I can wipe away the tears of your very soul. Only I.
Come into my presence with reverence and I will lift you up. Have you had enough? Yes? Then surrender it. Live a life of peace and joy. Deep joy. My joy I freely give to you. Poured in and overflowing. But you must let it go.
Live in abandon. Trust me. I’ve got you. Not a tear is wasted. No ache of your heart goes unnoticed. I have seen it and I have kept record of it. Now let’s turn the page and let me fill it. Let me write on it. Oh, I will have you surrounded with blessings, singing, dancing, and feasting. Rejoice! Your king is with you. Now, and always!
”Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy. They weep as they go to plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the harvest.“
Psalms 126:5-6 NLT
