Deep Calls to Deep

7 Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me. Psalm 42:7

My heart meeting God's heart. His love floods me so much I end up in racking sobs of surrender. To release to His love the very parts of me that I think are my strengths, He has exposed to me are what weaken my faith in Him; my fear in trusting Him.

The outer part of my heart is the part that I would give anyone in humbling myself. This is like the garment of my heart. The outer layer. The inner layer is so private, I forget it is even there. Until God reminds me from His word what He really wants from me.

13 Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity Joel 2:13

When I do this I feel naked and exposed. There is no vestige left of me that will give me security. But to deny Him this would mean my own eventual spiritual death. It is in being reborn from this place that I need to trust God that I will truly be living my life for Him.

6 " 'Then I passed by and saw you kicking about in your blood, and as you lay there in your blood I said to you, "Live!" Ezekiel 16:6

In surrendering to God the very thing that keeps me safe, but is from this world, I begin to put my trust in Him, and for that He promises me His peace.

You will keep in perfect peace, himwhose mind is steadfast because trusts in You. Isaiah 26:3.

in Christ...
