Expose what is broken

Expose what is broken
FIX EVERYTHING LORD
Tear my life wide open
Everything needs to change.
 
Rip open my defenses
Pull out my pain
Draw the bile from me,
Let me live again…
 
Do not stop, Lord,
I desperately need healing,
Open a new door for me,
I want to live…
 
Let me be a vessel,
Cracked, broken for You,
Let me be useful to You
To share Your word on Earth…

My assault does not define me

My body’s reaction,
involuntary movement
blood rising within me
not in my control…
 
Being in that place
a littered field that morning
did not justify
sin committed against me…
 
My assault does not define me
no chains still hold me,
I am releasing the pain
I should have long ago…
 
God was with me
in the struggle, that moment,
in every day after,
even though I pushed Him away…
 
My journey, my sin,
every minute of my sojourn,
only the love of God,
the sacrifice of Jesus…
 
The cross defines me
the love poured out, finished,
I am redeemed, restored,
io matter what I go through…
 
I have a new life
I am defined by Jesus
His sacrifice paid my price,
and everything done against me…

Our jobs do not define us

We create false idols
gods that betray us,
things of this world, the flesh,
that will die, that fade away…
 
Our jobs do not define us
they do not gauge our worth,
the love of God, through Jesus,
more than treasure here on earth…
 
We cling to the familiar,
stuck in our ruts, our paths,
We seek glory from our neighbors,
fellow travelers on this earth…
 
God alone defines us
through the love He pours out,
We are beloved children
bought with an awful price…
 
Our jobs do not define us
We are of infinite worth
God became incarnate to save us
to raise us from this earth…
 
God calls us to trust Him,
to follow Him alone, His call,
His way is better for us,
than anything here below…

Holding on to Bittersweet – v3

I have not trusted God for protection
because I believed Satan’s lie that He wouldn’t
I have not believed God loves me
because I feared He didn’t, that I was alone,
I settled for the familiar, what I know
not following my heart, my dreams,
not venturing forth, courageous,
holding on to bittersweet
The pain of this now…
 
I have not risked anything, inertia,
I have not lived, truly, fully,
Pursuing God’s calling on my heart,
Standing in cement, in place,
stuck in my ruts, the familiar,
Praying that this will get better
leaden feet, frozen,
stuck in the quicksand,
trying merely to survive…
 
I have avoided pain, in stasis,
And yet, pain is what I carry,
not taking a risk, moving forward,
not trusting in God’s promises
I choose the pain of the familiar
not believing He will protect me now…

The Spirit rejoices – v2

As with the Prodigal’s father
running out to greet him
out on the road, joyful,
God is so happy,
when we come back home…
 
The Holy Spirit rejoices
when we confess our sin
recognizing our need for God
when we plead for forgiveness
for new life to begin…
 
God has already forgiven us
the stain has been removed
through the finished work of Christ;
unrepented sin is death, new pain,
as if Christ was still on the cross…
 
The Holy Spirit rejoices
ss with the Prodigal’s father,
when we come to God, returning,
humbly submitting our whole lives
transparent, humble, as a child…

choosing a life with limits – v2

living fearfully, frozen,
accepting less than I dreamed of,
settling in this life, these ruts,
holding on to bittersweet
far less than I wanted
as if I deserved it, loss,
my lot in life less, far less,
than what I dreamed of
in life, to be fulfilled…
 
choosing a life with limits, stuck,
avoiding pain, sheltering,
wanting so much more,
to follow my dreams
to risk but I didn’t, I haven’t,
holding on to bittersweet,
my lot in life insufficient
feeling lost, unfulfilled,
never happy in my spirit…

dark thoughts – v2 #suicide #ideations

A cloud over our journey,
our walks, in these moments,
longing for more, much more,
but trapped deep within us
echoes of torments, abuse,
pain within our spirits, shadows
over our lives, our walks, sin,
a sentence too great to carry…
 
Dark thoughts, ideations,
minds torn asunder, folly,
not knowing what to believe
tormented by our demons
muses of the mind chaos
paths we could choose
not knowing what to believe
fearing we are deceived…
 
Falling for their traps
listening to the sirens,
their songs, their cries
to the sailors, impulsive,
snares of the flesh, captured,
grabbing hold of our spirits
casting us into the waters
no hope for our souls…
 
Dark thoughts, ideations of
spirits that have been captured
lost on the waves, in the snares,
of those who should be forsaken
avoiding their entreaties, their cries,
swirling in the flesh, in chaos,
drowning under the waters
pulled down into the deep…
