When the praises go up, the blessings come down

You’ve been there all along, I’ve just been drifting and coasting.

I’ve had better seasons, But we’re not here to compare today. Not today, not ever. Not to my roommate, Or my past self. Today is a new day and You, You choose to shape even the messiest details of my life with intentionality and purpose. You give me purpose. You deserve more credit than what I give to You.

In this new season, I pray. I pray continually to my One & Only. The One who gave me breath. The One who gave me life.

I pray on the go. In the little moments when I see You In the big moments when I don’t.

I pray because I need You. I yearn for Your direction, guidance. I am aching for Your specific vision for me, for us, for our future. No matter how blurry or far away it seems. The future is now and You have it planned perfectly.

I pray because I trust You. I pray because You desire a relationship with me. You want the absolute best for me - especially when I am distant. You never give up on me.

And for that reason, I pray. As I praise You and Your name, Remind me of Your character and the truth of who You are. Repaint and redefine what prayer is. Show me You. Not to praise for anything in return. Simply to praise You for who You are. That is enough.

It's about learning to show up and let ourselves be seen just as we are, massively imperfect and weak and wile and flawed in a thousand ways, but still worth loving. It's about realizing that what makes our lives meaningful is not what we accomplish, but how deeply and honestly we connect with the people in our lives, how wholly we give ourselves to the making of a better world, through kindness and courage.

Psalm 3

...but you are a shield around me, O Lord; you bestow glory on me and lift up my head. To the Lord I cry aloud, and he answers me from his holy hill. I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me.

“It is important to be gentle with ourselves in this season and participate in activities that help us thrive, rather than pushing ourselves harder and trying to ‘get it together.’” -Ann Swindell

Truth.

[breanna-lynn]

The soul needs autumn. Let what’s dead fall. Let the wind sweep it up and blow it away. Your colors are changing; it’s so beautiful. Don’t be sad it was a part of you and now is gone. Some things have to die. It’s their season. You can’t hold on. This is your season to let it all fall. Shed what’s dead. Be free, stand tall. There will be a time to bloom again.

your roots remain // (via breanna-lynn)
