Her mind was always
a battleground
Since very young
anxiety ruled her life
She lived in the shadows
most of her life
Where many live and hide,
because of fear
The enemy knew what
Papa deposited in her
Keeping her chained to
her fears, suited him just fine
Without her knowing she
was feared in hell
All of heaven knew Father’s
dreams for her
Would she ever wake up
from her deep sleep?
Would she ever exchange
fear for faith?
Would she ever embrace change and find her voice?
There was something
different in the atmosphere
She could feel and
sense an urgency
Fathers voice calling her
to go higher with Him
Something had changed
Something had shifted
She started to wake up from
her deep sleep
When the biggest crisis
came knocking on her door
She knew it was orchestrated
by Papa
She could be an Orpah and
cling to her past
Or she could be a Ruth
step out and make the future
her home!
Everyone thought she
would panic and fail
That she would run to the
shadows and die there
They didn’t know the
God she served
He ministered to her
in her darkest hours
Her Knight in
shining armour
Walking her through
the valley of death
Leading her to His
waters of rest
He was her Rock
He had her back
He made her brave!
When anxiety and depression wanted to control her life
He held her close
He calmed every storm
Oh how Papa believed in
her!
Her pain introduced her
to her purpose
Her enemies trained her
in spiritual warfare
In her darkest season she
found her voice
The deeper she went Papa
cleared her mind
Every fear fell to the ground
She is ruling in once
defeated places
No greater love is there than
the Love of our Father
Looking around her she can
see how Father is awakening
sons and daughters
He is calling His Bride to
go higher with Him
They sense the urgency to
surrender completely
Stepping out of the shadows
To go on a life changing journey with Him!
