Break Though
You know when that moment is near
The voices in your head growing
The sound of victory muddled by the world around
There is power in that name
and its power will abound
Lifting up the focus for the heart that needs direction
intention is set and its beyond our own reflection
Outward vision never easy to maintain
The heart is selfish but victory is in the rejection of the vein
Breakthrough is never gentle
It comes from gripping and strain
But with that warm presence nothing can have this power detained
So set your sails and let the wind lift them up
because Victory is in you
And through the defeat it will cut!

Many Characteristics are claimed to your name
Your mightiness intimidating most, the enemy using lie to cover the truth and abstain from everything but lie
But how is it that I feel this Tenderness when some have no desire to get even remotely close
Fear of your wrath being stronger than the reality of your keen Heart
This hesitance a stumbling start to most
I wish they could feel that gentle nudge you give me to make steps of Bold
How can I reveal to them those moments that are too tender to even behold
Your presence consuming and your correction is sweet
Not like most fear, not little or even discreet
Warmth in your midst is the margin of this gain
Some fear you’re a giant who tramples with hate and distain
Truth, however is your eagerness for us to grow
You’re intertwined in our lives, Lovingly convincing us, that in this moment, you well know
The brush of your presence, your sweet words to remind
You guide me this way, because you are Gracious and Kind
So how is it that so many have lost sight
Of the gentle giant that many have left behind
You plead Joy with us Lord
And see Faith more precious than mere Gold
So now in the time of need, I see the depth of what you hope to behold
A people of Faith bonded together with glee
This may seem ridiculous or to many, even with out need
But if we open our eyes
Then its possible to see
That with Great Joy Comes an Triumphant Victory
Trampling death, circumstance,and the pits that inevitably come
God whispers to us that, with Joy, we OVERCOME
So this small word may be over looked
But its time now to revisit what God had intended when he started this Earth
Do you feel it now
The ground beneath us groaning
He’s looking for Warriors
The ones Joyfully following the call
An up rising, YES! and it starts with “Come one, Come all”
The Power is with in us
Bottled and captive for far too long
The only way to release it is to pry open these hammered crates
So let your Joy honor and reveal the power of Christ’s blood
Its time for the gates to open
And allow the flood
1 Peter:1-8 “So be truly glad.There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy.”

“Lesson 1” by Julie Hill Alger
At least I’ve learned this much:
Life doesn’t have to be
all poetry and roses. Life
can be bus rides, gritty sidewalks,
electric bills, dishwashing,
chapped lips, dull stubby pencils
with the erasers chewed off,
cheap radios played too loud,
the rank smell of stale coffee
yet still glow
with the inner fire of an opal,
still taste like honey

Does he know that when she was birth into this world his life would never be the same
Does he know?
Does he know the power he gives her each time he holds her hand or opens her door.
Does he know?
Does he know the feeling she feels when you looks in his eyes when she is unsure of herself
Does he know?
Does he know that every moment in her life going forward will bring her back to a place in time he stamped on her heart
Does he know?
Does he know her belief in her hopes and dreams stem from the confidence he gives her when he smiles
Does he know?
Does he know that one day he will not be able to protect her from hurt placed upon her by the world
Does he know?
Does he know that in her finest hour she will always look for him
Does he know?
Does he know that no matter how old and grey he becomes, he will always be her first love
Does he know
Does he know his little girl will one day grow up and become a grown woman and base her value on how he valued her
Does he know?
No really, does he know?
Be Inspired,
