Adventures in Psalm 29

‘Looking’ is the thing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

He makes something out of nothing. He takes the smallest things, the invisible things and illuminates them. He takes our stories, stories we fear aren’t worth telling, and reveals them for what they really are: entrance points for His grace.

If there’s pain, healing is close by.

Looking is the thing. There is treasure in the darkest of memories. He makes something out of nothing.

Hello?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…even when no one’s listening. Even when you’re not entirely sure you have what it takes to speak out without ego, pain or insecurity – speak. Silence is the key that opens doors to dark places-

Rave on :)

Walking Away

Most of the time, I don’t know where I’m going. That’s not so bad. I walk anyway, and I’m thankful that I’m getting to know the One I’m walking with a little better each day.

Into the mist…the cool air cleanses away the noise of the familiar.

STAY

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lift the veil of vanity

Open up my eyes

I will throw myself into your sea

and say good-bye to all my grief

To gaze into Your violet sky

to know Your fragrance- the breath of life

to never want to fight for peace

to let You decide

and love my enemies

But I can’t do this by myself

so stay…

stay with me

and lift the veil

so I can see

I’m happy now that I was made a dreamer. This wasn’t always so ;)

Pictures of breathing in the sky- displacing the smog inside with His perfume, filled my head while I  let it all out.

I know now that it wasn’t ‘just a dream’- it was a transaction.

God is creative; the Great Artist, and He  knows how to get passed

our reason to bring us into mystery.

He gives us songs to sing and dreams to enter and all the while we are being healed… go figure :)

Some thoughts this morning…

underwater-angel-01

On going deeper with God and how it happens for me.

It comes through the simple truths of Christ’s’ love. The message of the cross: “I love you, and want to be with you, so enter here” That has to be the hardest truth to accept without thinking too hard:)  But when I get still, a door that leads to the depths of God, opens up.  Isn’t it funny, when I think of depth, I always see water.  You can hear and sense things in water that you can’t hear and sense anywhere else.

I WONDER

Your voice
Like whispers and thunder
Your lightning strikes
More than once
The same place in my heart
Over and over
I wonder
How much I can take?
I wonder
How much closer I can get ?
I’d rather die, because I’ve seen Your face
Than die in the desert, because I was afraid of the fire
I wonder…

Sometimes… it just makes sense to give in…



It just kills the ego doesn’t it? This picture reminds me of me–when I’ve gone and tried to prove something. A friend of mine once said

“I’ve discovered that EGO stands for ‘Easing- God-Out’ ” We work in our own strength because we think we can… I’m glad He extends grace to us– We sure need it on days:)

SIMPLICITY

2 CORINTHIANS 11,2-3

- For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
-But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

BE OVERWHELMED :) PSALM 29

PSALM 29


A psalm of David.
1    Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2    Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
worship the LORD in the splendor of his [a] holiness.

3    The voice of the LORD is over the waters;
the God of glory thunders,
the LORD thunders over the mighty waters.

4    The voice of the LORD is powerful;
the voice of the LORD is majestic.

5    The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars;
the LORD breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

6    He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,
Sirion [b] like a young wild ox.

7    The voice of the LORD strikes
with flashes of lightning.

8    The voice of the LORD shakes the desert;
the LORD shakes the
Desert of Kadesh.

9    The voice of the LORD twists the oaks [c]
and strips the forests bare.
And in his temple all cry, “Glory!”

10    The LORD sits [d] enthroned over the flood;
the LORD is enthroned as King forever.

11    The LORD gives strength to his people;
the LORD blesses his people with peace.
