Just Be

Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. Matthew 5:48

Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father of Lights. James 1:17

The coming end of the year holiday season is upon us with Thanksgiving coming up next week and Christmas just about 1 month beyond that and the New Year 2015 a week after that! It always surprises me how time seems to just zoom past us. And then I hear His voice...

Just be.
Can you see?
He says to me softly.

So much noise all around,
My eyes cannot see.

Look into the Great Light,
He says.
My Father is Light.

Where are You, my Lord?
I reach out in the darkness for His face.
I want to touch it.
I want His hand to guide me to the Light.

Do you hear me?
Are you listening with your heart?
He says even softer.

I close my eyes to hear...
My heart knows Him,
The One I love and adore.

Then my eyes feel the light
And are opened to see clearly.
I am warmed by the presence of my Lord.
His LOVE overwhelms me as I turn towards
The Light...

Revelation comes
As I look into His eyes.

My Child, you are BeLoved of mine.
Rest in me.
Just be
Here in my arms.
Stop your striving.
It hurts me to see you trying to earn
My LOVE
When I have freely given it to you.
My beautiful Child,
Just be.

Meeting Places

I am longing to meet with You my Lord,

And getting anxious in the waiting.

Where are You?

Come back to me, my Lord.

Do not leave me here longing for You.

BeLoved, the Son of I Am is waiting here, and here,

And here

For you.

Meet me in the garden...

Where my, Lord?

Where in the garden?

In our usual place under the apple tree,

Next to the fountain.

I will wait there for you.

Pour your fresh wine upon me,

And I will feed you apples and raisins.

I will impart my joy to you as I promised.

For I endured my cross 

For the joy set before me!

I will meet You there, my Lord, 

The Lover of my soul.

I will pour my pink wine on Your wounds.

I am captivated by the scars on Your arms--

For that, I am set as a seal upon You...
My sins upon Your body,
My Lord, the Lover and healer of my soul.
Forgive me,
I will pour myself out upon You
Like a fine wine.
I do not deserve Your apples and raisins,
Yet my heart longs to
Be with You--

My soul yearns for the strength
Your LOVE gives me,
And beauty, such beauty
To BeHold You...
BeHeld in Your strong arms!

I never left You,
You turned away.
I will never leave You.
I await for your return to our meeting place.

I will meet You there, my Lord...

The Angel and Our Baby Boy

Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of things [we]  hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]. For by [faith- trust and holy fervor born of faith] the men of old had divine testimony borne to them and obtained a good report.

Hebrews 11:1-1 The Amplified Bible

The angel held the baby boy so that I could see him.
My angel baby and his heavenly guardian.
The angel was so big 
That his wingspan went through the ceiling,
And the nearby wall.
My heart received its instructions.
And in the following months
I became pregnant with a son
And gave birth a year later.

Steady my heart, God.
For I am pregnant with Your purpose!
You have strengthened my body 
To conceive and bear this child.
Stay me on the beaten course.
Grant us Divine wisdom 
To train this child up in the way that he should go.

The angel holds his post.
Our baby boy thrives each day so peacefully
In the shadows of His holy wings,
Numerous guardians are camped around us,
Swords drawn,
Ever ready for battle.

Steady my heart God
With Your LOVE
Here in the secret place.
