There are many days I feel I'd like to fast forward through my life but then there are those moments I'd like to pause and embrace for as long as I can. The moments when stillness overcomes my soul, when inspiration fills my heart, and when contentment overtakes desire. It is in this moment that I feel God is only a breath away, that my life seems trivial in comparison to His eternity, and where my plans surrender to His purpose.
I close my eyes wishing this to never go away--I breathe in deep as if it's my last--My fight is gone as I surrender to His power. I'm filled with a joy that can't be taken away by mere circumstance, I hold it close to my heart and guard it with stillness.
Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.
--Psalm 27:14
I am eager, I feel ready, I desire more but yet I wait, and in moments of frustration and eager anticipation as I'm rushing the gate I fail to understand that it is my heart He desires. It is not a song, it is not a poem, a picture, a song, it is a heart that waits.
I will wait...I wont run...My hands are yours...
My perfect surrender I know is not enough, but to You I give it all.
