in the midst of my chaotic universe
my now that is spinning out of control
I hear the sound
the synchronized steady pounding assuring me
that You are near.
I rest my head against You
relieved to know You still have breath.
My breathing is labored
I have had to run hard
it seems I have been thrown to the wolves
I pant as the deer who is searching for brooks of fresh water.
Then I hear the sound
the sound of a steady heart
a heart resting
it brings a calming assurance to my soul
and I find rest
in the refuge of Your loving embrace.
My heart finds peace knowing I am yoked with You ...
Oh Cheri...so powerful. Last night I was sharing some struggles with a friend and she kept reminding me to breathe.
ReplyDeleteListening for the sound of His heartbeat and letting my head rest against His embrace.
Thank you my friend for this encouragement,
Hugs,
Joy
