When Satan comes lean in the Lord…

When Satan comes lean in the Lord…

A prayer to Heaven, to my glorious Lord who lives there shared this song with me in the wee hours on my birthday morning when Satan tried his hand at taking away the happy things of Gods plans for me today by stealing peace, love centred happiness. Satan, for who he is threw a blood curdling scream from my child breaking dawn, relentless, stealing my inner peace (and sleep) and threw me into overwhelm… They settled, the rooster at 5:20am which I haven’t heard for months starts crowing, and not long later someone’s tooting out the front several times, then little footsteps and flicking the light switch from my kids room, anxiety trying to click in – well, called you out Satan, gifting me overwhelm, anxiety, fear and more as a birthday gift – I caught you out and the gift? I’m giving it to my father in heaven – so watch out, he will make you a footstool in his son’s name.

Dear dear dear Lord,
Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear Lord let your light shine,
Shine your light,
Let people see your might,
Reigning down from heaven above,

Lord with me,
Show me your mercy,
Shine your light from heaven above,
When I am weak, you’re great,
Lord shine that heavenly face,

Lord I’ll be, at your mercy,
Pull me through what comes my way,
Lord guide me,
Lord bless me,
God show me you’re sweet grace,

Dear dear dear Lord,
Dear dear dear Lord,
Bring your grace,

Lord lead me,
Lord guide me,
Lord live in me your heavenly way,

Flood my body, with your mercy,
Shine your light through my face,

Dear dear dear Lord,
Dear dear dear Lord,
Oh, gift me with grace,

Dear Lord, oh dear Lord,
Bless this place,
You’re mighty,
you’re presence,
Your gifting grace,
Your in my place,

Lord fill me, Lord fill me,
Fill up that empty pit inside,
That empty feeling, at your mercy,
The one where the darkness tries to reside,
Fill with your presence,
Fill with your glory,
Lord fill me with your non parting way,

Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear dear Lord
Fill me here,

Oh Lord fill me,
Godly,
Help me stomp that serpents face,
Crush with my heel,
Under your glory,
Bring victory to your name,

You Overcomer,
Changer,
Let me be your different way,
Lord fill me,
With your glory,

Lord shine your light through my face.

Dear dear dear Lord,
dear dear dear Lord,
dear dear dear Lord, ahy-men.

The Eve of You.

It’s the eve of your entrance to this world little man,
A time I hadn’t quite planned,
A few days early,
I couldn’t escape,
Then my waters did break.

I waited and waited,
Then Khristie arrived,
We waited and waited,
Without a sign,
Khristie took off,
Brought back pizza,
My requested lunch to much.

Then you said “oh no, there’s no room for food! I’ll get this labour started extremely soon”
And from that moment, the push and the pain, labourous love,
Moaning in pain,

The labour of love,
A distant mind,
Out of focus, out of line.

My body was heaving,
And nothing would come,
Your dad came by,
Then you thought you’d try.

A blubbering mess,
There on the floor,
Two friends and your dad to hear me roar.

Time stood still, in that long afternoon,
You knew it would be evening soon,
And out you emerged,
Tiny and goopy,
Precious, loved,
You threatened to go poopy.

Oh how I held your tiny slippery body,
There in my hands,

You undeniable beauty.

And there I will stop.
The photos I’ve got,
All thanks to Mille who came quite quickly.

That day to look back on,
That day to remember,
You are my son,
I’ll keep you forever.
