There’s a battle that’s going on within me.
A fight I need to win.
A struggle that I must face.
A war I want to rise above and to be the winner of the race.
But there’s a hold, a weight, an anchor that keeps pulling me down.
Resetting all my progress and causing me to power down.
I beat myself up and lose hope of ever finding (getting) a win.
Will I ever hold the medal, raise the trophy or sing the victor’s song.
Here we go again…
They’re coming at me like a force.
Yet this time I just want to lie there and say take me, do your worst.
I’m weak and depleted. I have nothing left.
What’s the point when my fate has been sealed.
Then like a whirlwind or tornado.
Like Dorothy being whizzed away to Oz.
I feel a presence surrounding me and engulfing my body.
Pressing, pounding and pushing against me.
I cry out as I feel the pain but this time it’s different.
I’m feeling a transformation, like I’m being renewed.
I’m being lifted up, my feet leave the ground. Like a phoenix rising from the flames.
But then before I can think and in a millisecond blink.
Its all quiet and I’m lying on the ground.
Not a sign or symbol of what had just occurred.
Then as I take it all in and absorb the deafening silence.
That’s when I hear it, something so quiet, like a whisper.
A still, small voice says…. (1Kings 19:12)
This battle is not yours, it’s mine. (2 Chronicles 20:15)
You are more than a conqueror through me and nothing will ever change that because… (Romans 8:37)
I am with you always even until the ends of the earth. (Matthew 28:20)
Rest my child because tomorrow we fight again,
But this time you are greater and powerful because I am in You.
Song for this piece- Safe within Your Hands by Sault
