Hidden In Your Heart

When the world was young, we were innocent. We were naked and unashamed. Glorious and full of life. Convinced. As we fall to our knees, we crave the calling to our inner-self. To be rescued. Yet we give in to paralysis and deny our very nature. We go passive. We are often enchanted falling prey to the lies of the enemy. Our confidence from above, we forfeit. The emptiness, nothing seems to replace. Relational heartache, with an urge to control our vast capacity for intimacy ever filled. We try to feed, yet are guarded. Our sense of security can only be found in His strength, from His grace, into the tender beauty, that invites to life.

Are we but merely fictional characters in a web of manipulation to our hearts convictions. Beneath it all, secure in our fate. We draw attention. Timid and afraid, we try to remain safe. Withdraw in our desolation, feeling appreciated to our thirsty hearts. Will our faithless indulging draw us closer to the father, or just to another nightmare of addiction. To numb our pain.

They've entangled themselves in our souls. So cruel and relentless, these sorrows of life. Imprisoned in chains, which seperates us from the heart of our creator. A lonely prison of our own making, each chain forged in the fires of our selfish lusts for lifes' pleasures. They interwine the sacred romance in a fear of abandonment. In this dangerous and unpredictable world, our questions still remain. Taking us on a journey to the restoration and release, as we discover who we are.

We possess a beauty, so majestic, yet powerfully captivating. There's no sense of shame, as we've recovered our true state. Breathless moments in the dark, the triumph of His work. The masterpiece seems complete, awaiting the final touch. So intricate, so dazzling. Redemptive, this unbroken friendship. The essence of the most high. A name to behold, and something to be explored.

A radiance. Already there. Only hidden in your heart.
