I don't know who I am anymore,

because I refuse to be me anymore.

Let me rephrase that.

When I am

LIVING IN ME,

I get all wrapped up in

what I want when I want it.

When I am

LIVING IN ME,

I expect my expectations to come to fruition.

When I am

LIVING IN ME,

I can't feel anything else but me.

Let me rephrase that.

I can't feel anything but

ME, MYSELF, and I,

which gets quite overwhelming,

when you are so consumed with yourself.

It is like being stuck in a cocoon,

just waiting and waiting and waiting

without any

HOPE

 that you will ever

be different,

feel different

and

live different.

Oh the

PEACE OF FREEDOM

when you

 you leave yourself behind.

you realize that there is a LIFE beyond yourself,

that you never knew existed.

Oh the SWEET SPOT of LIFE,

when you experience

a HOPE gives you exactly what you

NEED,

which is what you always WANTED in the first place,

when you were striving to

Oh the SWEET SURRENDER OF LETTING GO

that sets you free from

being trapped in 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 life 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 and places

beyond who you thought you were born to be,

and

INto

who HE created you to be~

ALL HIS,

that lasts an eternity.

Do you feel stuck?

Do you a

NEW HOPE,

NEW PEACE,

NEW JOY,

and a

NEW LOVE?

NOW is the time.

This very

SECOND

that changes every

SECOND,

when you

LIVE IN HIM.

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

for OPENING the DOOR to my own cocoon,

to make me

YOURS~

"You're amazing, faithful, love's open door.When I'm empty, You fill me with hunger for more.Of Your mercy, Your goodness LORD.

You're the air that I breathe.That's

 who

WHO YOU ARE TO ME"*"

(listen to the song below)
