Give it to Me!
Whether shame
Or heavy expectations
Let Me carry that load
That wearies you out
I AM the Burden Bearer
Let Me carry you
Jesus

Give it to Me!
Whether shame
Or heavy expectations
Let Me carry that load
That wearies you out
I AM the Burden Bearer
Let Me carry you
Jesus

Oh, My love
Treasured
Beyond your understanding
Your life releases a fragrance
That touches whomever you meet
Your love is intoxicating
Rising to My throne

Like a flower
Gracing the earth
You are to Me
Since your birth
Your beauty catches
The attention of those who look
For hidden treasures
Which soon will be revealed
You may look different
Than those that are around
But always remember
My pleasure in you abounds

Blow the sjofar
Release the sound
Let the whole world know
A Lamb was found
The Price was paid
To access heaven
Lavish provision
In the presence of the King
Sound the alarm
Release the sound
Let them know
That without a substitute
Safety is not found
“Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world”

We are like the moon
Sometimes we shine brighter than others
Sometimes our light is obscured by clouds
Yet always remember
That our light is not our own

Like a sunrise
Is my love for you my child
I entered into darkness
In search for you
I descended in the grave
To get you out
I did not avoid death
To be with you
But My love
Is stronger than death
My passion
Stronger than darkness
My desire for you
Defeated the grave
Like a sunrise
Erasing the night
I AM victorious
I AM alive

I often hear God speak when I write.
I start out with an idea in my mind, not knowing how it will unfold.
As I write, new thoughts just keep coming that I did not intend to write or even knew were true.
Another way I hear him speak is through art.
Either through watching it or through making it.
I recently started art journaling.
This basicly means I take a moment before I start to listen for his voice/impressions.
Then I start drawing and keep sensitive to his leading.
So I might draw things that initially don’t make sense.
The goal is not to make an artwork, although it could lead to that, but to hear him speak to my heart in a way that mere words sometimes can’t.
You might want to try it out it’s really fun and if you can write, which you can because otherwise you probably couldn’t read this either, you can draw.
You could when you were a child, and you didn’t unlearn it.
You just stopped doing it.
Just get some (cheap) supplies like colorpencils or pen brushes (which I use at the moment) or whatever you prefer.
You can even start out with only a pencil and paper but I think colors can be a great addition because they kind of speak for themselves, each having meaning.
Take a moment to quiet your mind.
Let go of all distractions, close your eyes if it helpes, and ask the Holy Spirit what He wants to say to you.
When you have an impression you start drawing.
Or painting, or whatever medium you prefer!
Painting might even be easier because you can keep it abstract if you feel uncomfortable about drawing figuratively.
However stickfigures are allowed too…
It can be very simply, it’s not about skill!
And you don’t have to have the whole picture in your mind up front.
As you draw new idea’s how to continue will come up.
When you finish, or along the way, take time to listen to what He speaks to you through what you made.
Enjoy!
