Have you ever felt so LOW,
because of
what is happening
or
because of
what is not happening in your life,
that you just can't get UP?
You wonder how it is even possible
to GET UP,
but you know that you can't stay where you are.
GET UP anyway!
Make a JOYFUL noise.
A noise that makes your whole body
become alive,
when your whole body
feels lifeless.
But what if you don't FEEL like making a
JOYFUL noise,
until you FEEL JOY?
Do it anyway,
because
JOY is tucked deep down inside you
just waiting to come out,
and you hold the key to release it?
Oh how I have to get out of the way
when I am sitting on the woe is me chair.
When I allow
SORROW
to get the best of me,
and act as if
JOY is a foreign country.
Time is now.
GET UP!
"So come on, my soul, oh, don't you get shy on me.Lift up your song.'Cause you've got a lion inside of those lungs.GET UP and praise the LORD".*
Oh GET UP!
Such powerful words.
GET UP,
as it is the only place to go
when you are so low.
GET UP,
just like the Psalmist did
after speaking to HIS downcast soul~
"Why are you in despair, O my soul?And why have you become restless and disturbed within me?HOPE in GOD and wait expectantly for HIM,
for I shall again praise HIM,for the help of HIS presence"
(Proverbs 42:11).
Hmm.
The cries of an HONEST HEART
to the ONE who HEARS all your CRIES.
Have you poured out your HEART to the ONE
who hears your HEART?
Today is the day to
GET UP!
Is there a something or a someone that is keeping you DOWN?
Have you told GOD about it?
GET UP!
I am tired of allowing
DESPAIR
to GET me DOWN,
when
GOD is
calling me
and
calling you
to
GET UP
because
"I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD"
(Psalm 27:13-14).
How easily I forget that
we have a
GOOD GOD
who has given us
HOPE
&
JOY
all
SWADDLED
in
JESUS,
so that
JESUS can SWADDLE us
with
HIS HOPE
&
HIS JOY!
Ready. Get set. Go.
GET UP~
"I throw up my handsand praise YOU again and again.'Cause all that I have is aHallelujah, hallelujah.And I know it's not much,but I've nothing else fit for a KING, except for a heart singingHallelujah, hallelujah" *
Oh JOYFUL JUNE!
From
DOWN to UP
is so easy,
and all you have to do is
just
GET UP
in
*"GRATITUDE"
(listen to the song below)
