Overwhelmed By Him

If you can get yourself to a place of trust miracles will happen in your life...they have for me.  Somehow you have to trust people enough...you have to trust God enough...and you have to believe in what you have been told...what you know is truth.  And then...then just breathe in.  Breathe in what the Lord has for you.  No...actually breathe Him in...then exhale.  Exhale your fears...exhale your insecurities...exhale all the pain you have kept bottled up inside for most of your life...exhale the grief and depression you have allowed to rule your life.  Give them to Jesus...place them at the foot of the cross...behind the cross...and know...know that you will not pick them up ever again.  Why?  Because you have now given them to the Lord...turned them over so that you can begin a new journey.  A journey of peace because you are free...you are being healed...you are becoming more and more free with each passing moment.  Free to be who you were born to be...who you were created to be.  Let Him heal your heart...let Him soften your heart.  Allow the tears to flow...freely and often.  Then...stay close to the Lord and He will stay close to you.  Run into His arms of love...let Him embrace you...hold you until you know that He has always got you in His grip...firmly yet lovingly.  You are His.  He loves you.  He loves me with a never-ending...undeniable...all encompassing...love.

Jeremiah 31:3
The Lord appeared to me (Israel) from ages past saying,
I have loved you with an everlasting love;
Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you and continued my 
faithfulness to you.

Ezekiel 36:26
And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you.
I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender responsive heart.

Psalm 73:28
But as for me, how good it is to be near God!
I have made the Sovereign Lord my shelter,
And I will tell everyone about the wonderful things You do.

I have been truly overwhelmed by a truly overwhelming Savior!
Only He can satisfy...only He can heal...
Only JESUS...only JESUS
