Light shines from Heaven's Mirror


Hanging from trees, bottles with flowers, messages hang from the leaves.
Just for me, just for me, dangling in the cool night air, hanging like hands of Love, all for me. Message in a Bottle, right there for me to see, shining lights burn like rays of light from Heavens Mirror. Moments of Love touch my soul, Moments of Comfort relieve the pain I carry from open wounds that crawl in to the Wounded Hands of God. Arms open wide, from the Cross He cried, I kneel down and dry my eyes, it hurts here Daddy. Then He whispers as He gets back up from off that tree, ascends in to Heaven and says "come on child, come and sit by me." He holds me tight, wraps me in that favourite blanket I had since I was born and says "rest those eyes, today will end and things will be made new." I struggle to close my eyes, fear keeps them open as I look around, I'm too afraid to admit to my fear, too fearful to awaken trust thats needed for my body's sleep.

Hand drawn in to a fist, this enemy wont let me rest, perfectly strung arrows hit me in my chest. I peel them off, thank my King for this armour, the enemy wont play fair but He dont know who stands here. King of Kings, Ancient of Days, He wont let me go. Child of the King, I wear His signet Ring, you dont know who you messing with. I turn back around and see Heaven's Gaze, His eyes always on me, His Love it surrounds me. I am choosing the new, choosing the Belt of Truth. Truth is who I am, the truth that helps me take my stand. Belt of Truth, that's my identity and I am choosing my five stones, putting them in my bag and standing with victory in my hand. Goliath will come and I will breathe in deep, I wont be afraid, wont be shaken from my place. I will defeat him because God is my Strength. These words will peel back and will peel off, I will take my stand. Moments of victory hang in the air, they wait for me to claim them, hold on because I am already there. "Open your eyes, arms open wide, rest now my child, because it's gonna be alright."

  2. Lovely words and image. It reminded me of when Aslan is calling to Lucy in the Price Caspian movie- she follows His voice through the woods even when others don't heart it. Stopping over from Three Word Wednesday.

  5. I was just reading a post inspired by the passage in Zephaniah - God rejoices over us with singing. I love that image. I love this image.."He holds me tight, wraps me in that favourite blanket I had since I was born and says "rest those eyes, today will end and things will be made new." Beautifully written and powerfully envisioned - Mighty God, Creator of the Universe cares for each of us, personally and intimately. Thank you for sharing this. I'm your neighbor at Sunday Stillness.
