Finding Space
Running dry
Empty and lost
burnt out
Catching irritation
and annoyances,
I stop
Let go
Tell the busy
the pain
to halt
they try not to cease,
But I let stuff go
and choose to
bring who I am
and stand
sit
lie down
run
walk
rest
write
dance
wait
in my secret place,
a place to find God
Practicing delight
in now moments
Speaking to my soul
telling it to trust
to enjoy
the One who truly loves,
Leaning into God’s heartbeat
Waiting
Holding
Stilling
connecting with God
slowing the Rhythms of life
into unforced Rhythms of grace
into heaven’s presence,
Living from eternity
Living free and lightly.
Starting Thoughts:
Are we prepared to live in a way that truly meets with our past so that we can walk through the pain and habits that stop us from finding rhythms of grace in the rhythms of life? Can we find our own place to meet with God are get to hear His voice?
