#shadows #God #FightingShadows

followed by echoes 
shadows of history  
of inheritance, of choice 
from the Garden 
to this moment  
we are wooed from the light... 

shadows in our past 
of the steps before this step 
a burden often in secret 
seeking to wick the power 
the gifts of light God offers, 
the way of Jesus Christ...

shadows haunt us 
because we give them power 
replacing them in memory  
a constant feedback loop... 

Step into the light
defeat the shadows  
Walk as Jesus walked,  
as He calls us...
