SILENCE

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

It is within grace we are defined and secure, it is within love healing replaces our scars.

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

Situations will challenge your pace

People will stretch your capacity and space

Your faith will balance you in this place

Defense will rear its playful head

These are the times silence is where you tread

Everyones actions and voice tell a story in time

You can choose to tell it with love

You can choose to tell it with any emotion but love

However when the story is told

It will reflect the heart space we hold

SUNSHINE

There are times in life I am challenged to the place I want to explode. Where my hearts traumas react, where the past is the reaction and the present is where I need to be.

When we choose the wrong friends, the wrong relationships, the wrong space, we then choose the lesson of where we are in our own heart space.

Are we protective, are we loving, are we generous, are we doing our best, are we looking for approval, is there insecurity, shame or is there grace and love within every space.

Are we defending ourselves because another has hurt us, are we wasting energy where energy can strengthen us not deplete us ? Or is the lesson really to know who you are enough to finally be silent in this space, to be unshakeable in this place. Is the lesson really to rely on the truth you and your loved ones have built and to stand firm in this place when the earthquakes of life tries to knock you down and you just kept growing even with the storms and clouds.

DON’T let the bad breathe of the world knock you out, instead stand quieter and stronger gaining your strength and ground. That is where truth is found.

LOVE, SUNSHINE

Encouragement

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

Encouragement is a melody that is continual when embraced through love.

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

When love and grace weave into your energy space

Whispering currents of encouragement tantalize your soul

Creation already knows

Reflections become whole

Blue skies don’t fall

You’re part of it all

A masterpiece is not created by day

Perseverance tiptoes all the way

Continual loving persuasion is self-made

SUNSHINE

Love and grace are always embracing you, are you able to receive?

Loving persuasion is self made, it is not something you can count on another for, it is a strength you receive through faithful encouragement that comes from Gods perfect grace.

The stresses of life can catapult us into distraction of self, forgetting we are a vessel for more than anyone can fill  leaving us defensive and unable to unwind.

It is in the glory of knowing when we trust Gods plan and we trust ourselves with what He has given us and we are responsible with his blessing than we see the fruits of our perseverance.

Stand in the knowing, not in the doubt, not in mans word, and not in things but in the promise of Gods love that can only flow when we first let go.

STRUCTURE

Posted on by Kerri Elizabeth

I am moved by the Creator of the winds and the waves and the depth of the sea, it is within the structure strength is determined.

~Kerri-Elizabeth~

It is within structure we build strength
It is within courage we face our fears
It is within love we create peace
It is within grace we are forgiven
Silence calls in deliverance
Listening moves through like waves breaking free
Stillness is arranged in readiness
Rivers and lakes can not contain water where our Creators structure was not built
Oceans can not be filled with life without our Creators structure it is held
Mountains will not stand without our Creators structure at hand
Life is passive without faith and love as our structured plan

Sunshine

I have been presented recently with numerous opportunities to walk outside of love and my heart has lead me within, to be still, to wait, to listen, to allow the waves to crash, for the storm to change course and find its resting place.

It is here where I am challenged with societies voice nearby, it is here I am faced with a humble stance to stand within grace, that nothing else comes before and nothing else will matter after.

There are numbers and signs that grace my desk with a constant rush to create a solution.

A voice whispers to me and says, “Do more, you’re not enough, to society you are not to par, you are broken, you are not worthy, shame and guilt try to dance with me, you’re not who you used to be, you’re not who you’re meant to be.”

For a moment I sit and I invite the emotions to express their place, I listen to the speech, to the emotions that swell me in tears.

It is not in the speech of another (fear, guilt, shame, unworthiness, failure, loneliness and loss to name a few at the table waiting to eat), That I swell in tears.

It is in the gratitude I already gave them all my attention over time, I listened and I sat at the table trying to decide, how to live or die.

They are now behind me and the love I finally share and the grace I allow in my space to finally be free of the rushing to be what society expects of me and instead, listen to what the spirit moves through me is the ONLY PACE I FACE.

I am not your normal and if your reading this your not the normal either.

I am not anyones exception or anyones selection, I am not a place to settle and I am not a passive moment. I am GODS creation, I am the daughter of THE KING and I have been placed exactly where I am supposed to be with who I am supposed to be with.

I  move with the ripples in the waters and the blowing of the winds within the trees, I  am human and I have spirit, I have a body and mind that struggles in judgement and I have a free soul that receives unwavering grace.

I am GODS creation made clearly in his image, I am beautifully and wonderfully made and I receive that with my whole heart.

I am the reflection of His love and I am also human in all my flaws, I am a vessel for Spirit flowing freely and I am a soul filled with truth.

YEP ALL OF THAT!

AND SO ARE YOU from my VIEW, with that structure you can’t lose!
