Here comes a rise and im tempted to get anxious 

I am not alone 

Reminded how my Father has never left us 

He provides the finances 

Sweeps off my way 

He created me in such love

Proving it everyday 

Talk is whispers displayed in loud action 

Yet when i peek in, i get only a fraction 

Its all so much to take in

The honor of experiencing such moments despite my sin

Revealing that youre not a God of only discipline 

Not a Father or mother whos looking to manipulate and punish the child within. 

You’ve taken me under your wings

With the morning lights, over me, you sing

Im safe here with you, 

Raised and kept, loved and saved for you

You care for me, take care of me 

A real life giving tree

Grafting me upon your strong branch 

Patiently washing off my dirty hands 

You speak when we meet

Finding me when im off in the deep

I need not be anxious, as i breath in this consistent hope 

Boasting in my lack of because for you it’s only an opening stage which is dope

Watch Him show out, Showing off again 

My God, Jesus is so much more than a friend

The bridegroom and the church is we

The presence of your name alone causes all my problems to flee

So once more i focus on the promises and reread

the stories that have been told

Holding me over minute by minute, your saving grace unfolds

Come, i whisper out, lighten my load

You quiet me as i wait within your hold.

~With the Holidays looming, the raise in my mortgage was not a welcomed piece of mail. I put the envelope down and took a deep breath. I KNOW my God provides, and I know He has our back. This has been demonstrated in our life many times over. Sometimes I just need a reminder. I repeated this truth to my heart that had began to palpitate with all the “What ifs”

I acknowledged the feelings of concern, but once again redirected myself to my belief that my circumstance is but only a stage, providing an opportunity for my God to show out. Are you watching? Or maybe you are the one God is working through this holiday season. Is it possible to do and be both?

Share your thoughts below. Happy Holidays ♡
