I don't know who I am anymore,
because I refuse to be me anymore.
When I am me
I get all wrapped up in
what I want when I want it.
When I am me
I expect my expectations to come to fruition.
When I am me
I can't feel anything else but me
and that gets lonely
and overwhelming
.because who wants to be so consumed with yourself
It is like being stuck in a cocoon
just waiting & waiting & waiting
without any
HOPE that you will ever
be different
feel different
&
live different.
Leaving me for HIM.
When you leave yourself behind
you realize that there is a LIFE beyond yourself,
that you never knew existed,
that is way better than
getting what you want when you want it
&
that is way better than your striving to meet your own expectations
&
that is way better
than living in what you feel.
Oh Surrender. Oh Letting Go.
Oh just Giving up
LIVING IN ME
because there is the better option~
LIVING IN HIM~
that sets you free from your own cocoon
because
we were not created to be a caterpillar.
ME~ NO LONGER AN OPTION
YOU~ NO LONGER AN OPTION
because there is a better
LIFE CHANGING OPTION
that
sets you free from
crawling through life~
Even when life gets tough,
because it does gets tough.
Even when nothing appears to be going your way,
because everything isn't going to go your way.
Even when you are waiting for something or someone to change,
because there will always be something or someone who you are waiting
to be different.
But being different isn't as dynamic as
being TRANSFORMED
from the inside out.
For when your WINGS start to emerge
you wonder if they are really yours
because they start to take you
to spaces & places
beyond who you thought you were born to be
and
INto
who HE created you to be~
ALL HIS~
Today. Tomorrow. Forever.
Will you make
JESUS your ONLY OPTION
so that you can not only FLY,
but SOAR above every ARROW that strives to keep you stuck in your cocoon?
FORGIVEN. FAVORED. FREE.
No Longer me. No Longer you.
Because
"if anyone is in CHRIST, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come"
(2 Corinthians 5:17)
Thank YOU JESUS
that YOU are my ONLY OPTION~
and that is
"WHO YOU ARE TO ME" (listen to the song below)
