You Have Captured My Heart

You Captured My Heart


I see you in the morning…I don’t have to search far….some men go great distances with great expense to try to find their prize!                                                      
                                                         

                                              But You are in my Heart….You are My Precious.



I am transformed by Your greatness. All I want to do is know you more and more.
I am so impacted by knowing you.

How can anyone see you, feel you, and walk away the same?
You captured my heart Oh God!
Nothing is the same for me, because of you.

I lay myself down, at your feet and I cry, “Have mercy, Oh God…for I am a sinner?!”
I see You, even in my sin. You are Holy and Pure.
You are Full of Love and Compassion.
I see You in my life.        
                               
I am completely humble, crumbled on the floor in a heap of broken-ness.
I raise my face to see You.
You say to my life….”Child, My Sweet Child.” “I have loved you with an everlasting Love.”
    "Come to me, you who are weary and broken hearted and I will give you Life.”
                                                         
You have taken this discarded life…picked me up out of the mire of my sin….
                                          I am resting at your side…close to your beating heart.

“I Am the Father to the Fatherless. A Husband to the widow. I am the Redeemer and Life Giver.”
My Father says, “I bind up the wounds of the broken hearted. I Am your Healer.”


I rest beside Him and I am safe.
I am His Daughter. I am because of Him.

Lord, may I live to give you the honor for my life. May my life be the reflection of your heart. I am so in love with you. I don’t ever want to be apart from you.
                                               Your Light chases away all the dark shadows.
I rejoice in the knowledge of You.                             







   My Father, I pray to be beautiful in your image. I pray to love with your love.    
          
  I see how beautiful you are in all your ways.
You have the Perfect Heart.
   Your Love for me is from Your Perfect Heart.

Jesus Calms The Storm



Today before I even got out of the bed this morning, I felt my heart stirring inside me. I felt tears in there before I was fully awake. I laid there in the quietness for a little while. Pondering what was in my heart on purpose. I must talk to God…I don’t know what this day is going to hold for me, but I feel I must talk to Him about it.


So I lay there in the still and the quite and I talk to My God.

“God, I don’t know what this day holds for me, but You do. I trust You with my life. I trust You with this day.” I know you will take care of me.”


I look outside, it is sunny and everything is started to spring up in nature.
But, it feels dark and stormy. Why?

                                                                         

So I cry. I need to cry.
It feels like a sweet release, even though my heart feels broken.
It feels this way, because my heart matters to God.
It feels this way, because I matter to God. 


Today, I pray and I cry. I cry and I pray.

No one can offer me the comfort my heart needs.

There is no tangible circumstance for it.

It is between me and God.



It a time of pulling weeds and replanting.
It hurts. He is drawing me closer to Him,
To become less of me and more of Him.

He has to work on me on the inside. Revealing His truth into my life and my heart. Getting rid of the things that tarnish His image of who He is inside of me.

When this understanding comes to me. I cry more, because of the constant Love and tenderness of my God in my life.

Oh, how I love Him.
He loves me so much, He continually searches my heart. Keeps watch on what is in there.

I need Him. I want Him. I desire more of Him.
I want to see Him more. Know Him more.

He offers me what no man can.
He offers me more than the world has to offer.

I know this and I am blessed to know it.
To experience the deep loving things of Him.

Who can separate me from His love?
No one and nothing.

Where could I go to hide from His love?
No where.

He is my Friend in my storms. Whatever they are.
Whenever they happen.

Have you ever noticed, when there is a storm coming in the horizon, you can sense it and feel it. After that as you look toward the skies you can see it coming.

My body even feels different as a storm approaches. My bones ache a little. I feel apprehensive and even a little scared.
                                                                        
Sometimes storms take us by surprise too though…One minute a clear, beautiful day, sun shining bright. Then suddenly a cloud is over you. The skies above you roar and thunder…the earth feels like it is shaking and the rain pours down all around you.             

  
Have you ever noticed, that those unexpected storms, they don’t last long…only a few minutes and then the sun come right back out like it was just before that storm.



God is in those storms. He is our shelter. Our refuge.

We are never left alone in any type of storms.

Private ones, personal ones, unexpected ones, ones you felt coming, ones you saw coming, and even public ones. He is there. They will all pass.

The clouds will break and The Son will shine around your life.
                      
                                                                       Then I rejoice! 
                                              For This Storm Has Passed From My Heart!
Psalms 126:3 and 5
"The Lord has done great things for me; whereof I am glad."
"They that sow in tears shall reap in joy."

“For the kind of sorrow God wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation. There’s no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance results in spiritual death.” 2 Corinthians 7: 10

“Sorrow is better than laughter, because a sad face is good for the heart.” Ecclesiastes 7:3

1 Samuel 16:17
“For The Lord sees not as man sees; man looks on the outward appearance, but The Lord looks on the heart.”

Psalms 139:23
“ Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts.”
