Gods Excercise

February 13th and February 14th

I was listening to Spotify on the 13th and I heard one of my favorite songs come on. My favorite quote from that song plays, I always sing along to it. I see a rose in bloom at the sight of you... oh so priceless... irreplaceable. For Kings and Country's song makes me feel happy knowing that he is there to teach me.
I was scrolling through Instagram and saw one of my favorite people had posted a quote. It was in fact a bible verse that I did not know would impact me this much. The one listed in the poem hit home because I do not feel loved in a way that is out of this world. I was not proud of the way I was feeling that day. My anxiety took over and I turned once again to music. Music fills my soul up with a peace of mind. I start dancing the worries right out of my head. I find myself singing certain song lyrics as I am driving, out and about to calm me down. It helps me remember that I'm not perfect. Finally I just sang Its your breath in our lungs so we pour out our praise to you only.

Gods Exercise 

Our lungs rise and fall
deep breath in; slow exhale out
fear and unknown play

what am I afraid of
a heartbeat comes alive wonderfully
faster and inside cries

God come fill me up
inhale his comforting words
let my voice bloom into a rose

a second passes by like an hour
I open up my book of words
maybe there will be inspiration

we poke and prod
each letter floating around
not one forms a complete sentence

my brain knows how to exercise;
together in sync with the heart
Am I afraid of glowing into a...
confident, take on the world firefly

A bible rests on a marble counter top
the firefly lights up each step
doubt, fear and my wall comes...
slowly down into a flawed human being

see the firefly stop at the mighty
your hand flips to a random page
these words are completely whole
depths of a meaning unlike a text

1 John 4:19 jumps off brilliantly
WE LOVE your special moments
daily BECAUSE life needs balance
HE FIRST came along to tip the scales
telling us he LOVED US forever

technology does not have emotions
it cannot replace the idea that;
Gods hand wrapped around people
making them scribes for a...
cluttered-opinionated earth
where love and kindness are weightless
inside a packed church on Sunday

farmers, carpenters, physician, fisherman
all that and more loved him first
so that we love our friends, family in
unexpected ways
creating your most beautiful self
