As years of old, you no longer have to carry what was. Come beloved, lay it down. Put it at my feet. Come, sit next to me. In my presence is healing, wholeness and peace.
You have carried hurt, disappointment, trauma of all kinds, deception and disillusions. Lay them down at my feet. I will trade you a whole, healthy and strong heart for your tattered and dying one.
“A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench, Till He sends forth justice to victory;” Matthew 12:20 NKJV
I don’t need much, just a yes. I will take what little you have left to give. Watch what I will do. I will take your sorrow and transform it to joy. I will take your tired bones and give you dancing. Give me an offering of praise and I will give you victory.
What do you need? What does your heart cry out for? Come and sit with me. Lay your heart before me. Don’t you know I have all that you need right here in the palm of my hand? I freely give it to you.
You have wandered in the desert and felt alone in the midst of darkness. Beloved, I have always been with you. I never left.
I love you, my chosen one. Come and sit with me. As you are the apple of my eye, let me be all that you need. Let me be all that you seek. I am what your heart longs for. Come and be satisfied.
“For you are a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.” Deuteronomy 7:6 NKJV
