How God comes: Joy Dare {#91 – #111} Trust

Night-Morning Light

By Jennifer On February 9, 2012 · 8 Comments · In Desire, Intimacy

I will taste You in the morning, when I rise, moonlight still what beckons, darkness covering.

Your light guides me. I will walk these roads and know the way.

Father, the moon still up and beautiful, do You see me?  I run, this early morning, Your words, Your song in my heart.

Let me taste this and see You.  Let me spread this heart wide to this day, all unfolding, all possibilities, to start over.

All newness, with You.

There is sunlight coming.  I know it, Your light never failing, Your warmth always here.

I speak the words of Isaiah —  ”No longer will you have the sun for light by day, nor for brightness will the moon give you light. But you will have the Lord for an everlasting light, and your God for your glory” (Isaiah 60:19).

And I run into Your arms, stretched wide for me, and You hold tight and let go and continue running too, enjoying the morning breaking, right by my side.

Can you see Him, girls?  He is not far away, something or someone to conjure up.  He breathes this air, holding tight to your hand.  He is with you now, whether you feel like He is or not.  Amazing and beautiful, right?

JourneyTowardsEpiphany  (Praying for sweet Emily.)

    That is so beautiful.  I love how you can show how close He is by painting this picture with words.

    Oh, this wide open love: “And I run into Your arms, stretched wide for me, and You hold tight and let go and continue running too, enjoying the morning breaking, right by my side.” So thankful for it!

    God wants a 5-sensory relationship – from light to light! Makes me “rethink” how I feel His presence throughout the day!
