don't ****,
don't take that pill,
you're worth it,
even though you're in a pit,
god will get you through,
when you're feeling blue,
he loves you,
he's in view,
love him,
when you're feeling like you're out on a limb,
he will save,
please don't cave,
the sun is shining on his face,
we are saved by his grace,
don't be a slave,
don't bury yourself in that grave,
get up,
he is your backup,
he is love,
he pours it on us from above,
don't believe them,
you're a gem,
you are worth it,
please don't quit.

Every morning is a feast
if you really think about it
You're alive and breathing
You have clothes, a roof over your head and food
You have people who care for you
But most important you have God who cares for you
He will never fail to
Accept Love

You were so wicked!
You went on your own way!
You heard my voice,
Yet you act like you don't listen!

You were so coward!
You were ashamed of Me!
You saw My power,
Yet you turn a blind eye!

Yes, you were these things!
Yes! Yes you were!
You were and I was
I was because you were

I was angry!
I hid my face from you!
I was angry!
I let those things happen to you!

Yes! I was but then I am
I am who I was
But I will be who I am
I am after I was

I love you
You were wicked
But I will heal you
For I know you are My child

I love you
You were a coward
But I will guide you
Bring you comfort and rest

I love you,
I love you,
I love you,

This is My Love
I would say this many times,
I would tell you every day,
and I would sing that forever

So please comeback
Come back to Me now
My anger is set aside
I accuse you no more

Please child, come back
I'm waiting with open arms
I'm standing here until the day,
The day I see you to tell you...

Child, Welcome Home

God has nothing but good things in store for us.
Give him your heart.
He wants to give you His desires,
And form your dreams into
living
breathing
art.

you’ve been clinging to this boat;
you think you’re drowning.
the waves are too high,
so you cower
beneath the benches
in your dinghy.

that sea monster,
the one you thought
you finally put to rest,
he’s clawing relentlessly,
dragging you down a familiar cycle:
what if this,
what if that.
you’re assuming the worst,
but Beloved,
I can create the best
from any situation.

listen,
my child:
step out of the boat.

you think I'm crazy.
the waves
the monster
the water—
the boat is your safe haven.
how could I ask you
to leave?

do not rely upon the boat:
under duress,
it will splinter,
leaving you awash
in your sea of monsters and fear.

I do not desire for you
a spirit of fear;
I have given you a spirit of power,
of love,
and of a sound mind.
you will crush the cobra
under your heel;
you will walk waves,
you will conquer this
water beast.

you fear giving up
control.
if you aren’t
worrying,
planning,
exploring every detail,
you feel
life will fall apart.

trust in me;
step out of the boat.

your first step will be shaky;
this is okay.
Beloved,
fix your eyes
upon me.
ignore the rushing waters;
I am their creator.
ignore the writhing monster;
at the sound of my name,
it will flee.

I am greater than your fears;
I am more than your temptations;
I have conquered your anxiety.
you are not the first
to struggle,
but I have already died in battle,
and I have already won the war.

I am your fortress;
in my arms,
you will be safe.
