Out of the Shadows
As you lean into life’s depth,
Realizing you are still in the shallows,
There is no need for a deep breath.
Your emptiness is trapped in the shadows.
Our lives keep us busy,
Missing connections with family and friend,
Trying to stay balanced while dizzy,
Looking under control, but it’s just pretend.
Each person, each season, each moment,
My beloved, your crown of life is precious.
Prayerfully, each has received His atonement.
That freedom is completely cherished.
A message arrives with bad news.
My heart desires to know:
Was Jesus chosen or refused?
That heaviness of not knowing where they will go.
Give your heart, stay on guard,
With the Holy Spirit in the lead.
By His armor, you are the vanguard,
The first to share and show you are freed.
