I AM
Not far away in heaven
I AM
Not in another universe
I AM
Not in someone elses lifetime
I AM
Not in a different age
I do not speak a foreign language
I AM not a distant God
I AM not a cruel ruler
I came down from above
I left heaven’s beauty
The perfect atmosphere of love
I entered human frame
I did not despise earth’s shame
I drank in man’s darkness
I paid the price for every sin
I identified with every human
So they could be one with Me
Free Gift
Rest
In my love
Be still
In my embrace
I am like a woman
Nurtering
Cherishing
The fruit of her love
You are heaven’s expression
The fruit of divine passion
Relax RELAX
Says my cat
Sit down with your Maker
Let go of all your fears
Know that I AM near
You try to fly
In your own strength
You flap your wings
With all your might
But only one thing
You need to do
To soar in life
High up in the sky
Come to Me
Sit at My feet
Let Me teach you
The ways of life
Rest, My love
In the cross
I gave you all
Just abide
(New Year)
The old has passed
The new has come
Filled with opportunities
You sowed with tears
You will reap with joy
Every day will have new mercies
Let hope not die
Though darkness tries
To invade your wounded soul
The cross of Christ
Where He laid down his life
Is still the salvation of the world
Hide under My wings
Take refuge with the Most High
I AM your shelter
Trust without fear
Love your God
Let My words abide inside
Spend time with Me
Rest in My arms
Until My love heals every pain
Until you can see
Clearly again
That I AM all you need
I took the heat
In your stead
If only you would come to Me
Read here how to hide: Soaking
Goodwill
A tiny little baby
Born in a filthy stable
I doubt it was magical
But what if this baby was God
In human frame
I think the animals still stank
It was the perfect picture
Of a holy God
Entering a tainted world
The magic was the revelation
Of a God that cared
Enough to become a child
A God that is accessible
A God that is kind
A God that became a man
He identified with all our troubles
He did not shy away from them
Not even from our hostility
He reconciled us to himself
He paid the sacrifice this reunion required
He said “Behold, I AM THE LAMB”
Let there be
Freedom from religion
Bonds that bind
The wrong kind of attachment
Fear to be accepted
By God most High
Striving for access to heaven
That was already paid for with a price
Let there be
Freedom from fear
Not to fit in
Free to be me
Let there be
An all surpassing knowledge
Of a God divine
Surrounding every soul
Drenching our whole being
Soaked in love
Dripping drops of mercy
A river that can’t be stopped
Dances of deliverance
Songs that bring joy
Worship of the Almighty
Acknowledge that He is God
The Lion that is as meek as a lamb
But only towards his flock
Roaring against all
That touches his own
The Lion that became a sheep
That let himself being taken
Brutally slaughtered
Without resisting, like a lamb
The Lion that is a shepherd
Guarding
Protecting
Safe
You are my song
You are my joy
You are so beautiful to me
You make me dance
You make me sing
Over who I created you to be
You are transformed
A new creation
The old has passed away
You are a mighty warrior
Shielded with my love
Shielded with your faith in return
You are my warring bride
Displaying my glory in the dark
Flying on the wings of our unity
About a King and his Son
Their kingdom
And children in distress
If you’ve heard the gospel, the story about Jesus Christ the Son of God saving mankind, you might have noticed the many similarities with the many fairy tales and myths mankind has had over the centuries.
There’s a battle between right and wrong.
Light and darkness.
There’s a savior, a hero.
There’s a “lady” in distress, conveying the great love and passion the hero has for those he saves.
And there’s a good ending, that is if you’re on the right side of light.
And there’s lots of supernatural elements.
Hunderds and some thousands years old predictions being fulfilled during the lifetime of one man.
God incarnate.
A supernatural conception of a virgin.
People miraculously being healed and raised from the death.
Food multiplied and people walking on water.
Storms being rebuked and silenced in an instant.
People being delivered from demons.
The appearance of angels.
And yes there’s a dragon too…
But most wonderful of all: A God that loves his creation and was willing to become part of it in order to save it from it’s own rebellion against him and all the terrible consequences this led to.
Most of all it’s a story of great love that’s willing to go any length necessary to reach those in great danger. Danger of eternal darkness and life seperate from God, the One that gives us life.
For you the fairy-tale-likeness may be proof that it’s just another story.
For me and those who take a closer look and open their hearts to another reality we might have never known, it shows that our Creator has been speaking to us all along.
Through stories that may not convey “The Story” perfectly, yet show it’s innate truth nonetheless.
Now this just may seem all too far fetched and impossible to you but keep in mind that if God made us and the whole universe, then really He can easily overturn natural laws and appear any way He wants to.
I wrote it down for you in the form of a story. Because that’s what it is after all.
God’s story. And that of mankind.
It’s still a bit raw here and there (welcome to my writing process) and I intend to polish it up and describe the truths behind it (read here: his-story-1) and put in all together in a book.
For now it’s yours to read.
I’ll post it in small pieces a time over the next weeks.
May it bless you!
