"True Love" Slower with music
"True Love"
“True Love is not conditional. It does not need to be held, it does not need to be spoken to, it simply has to be. True love is limitless and boundless, it is free of desire and possession. It is free of a need to be known, heard, felt, or understood. True love stands alone, like a shipwreck in the middle of the sea. It floats on its own, Until one day its parts are seen as necessary, it saves the life of a wading soul. Giving the soul refugee even if in the end it might be tossed out in the cold. True love knows the cold is not the worst place to be, it is simply testing its boundaries. Which are in truth, limitless. True love waits, true love is patient, true love does not need. True love gives it all. True love has it all. True love loves to love even if it stands alone through it all.”
Poem Explanation
The purpose of this poem is to make us aware of how God loves us. As you listen to these words you might find yourself thinking “how could I possibly love this way?” But this is the way the Lord loves. This type of love is the one that made it possible for Jesus to sacrifice His life to stand in the truth of the ways of God. The ultimate question you must ask yourself in regard to this kind of love is “How long will I allow myself to run from it?” How long will you leave this love standing out alone in the cold? Allow God’s love into your life and watch it transform you from the inside out.
"Creative" Slower with Music
"Creative"
“Create from a place of quiet solitude. Listen to each whisper and allow life to flow in its strong fortitude. Do not worry about how. That will figure itself out. As you believe in your heart and simply allow. Allow the process to take place. Allow yourself to be surrounded by God’s divine grace. The Lord loves beyond anything you could ever imagine. There is more to this life than meets your eye. Hold that truth in your heart and you are sure to find, that you are more abundant than you could ever imagine. Create from your heart and let go of the outcome, and you will surely overcome. Trust in God and you will surely see beyond the veil. With Him on your side, you will surely prevail.”
Poem Explanation
This poem aims to highlight that God is the ultimate CREATOR. As humans, we are naturally creative. We are an extension of God, the original Artist/Creator of all things. He has given us dominion over the earth and its inhabitants. However, it is possible to feel frustrated as you set out to build a truly fulfilling life. The Bible teaches us that all good things come from our Father who loves us and desires only the best for us (James 1:17 & Mathew 7:11). God desires to walk with us through life. He wants to help us even in something like our creative process. He knows how to help you bring your skills to life and he knows what skills you have left buried (refer to the Parable of the Talents in Mathew 25:14) Do not allow your life to pass you by. Don’t leave your potential buried like the bad servant in the parable. Surrender to God’s process and allow yourself to be transformed not only as His child but as a willing hand in improving the world through creations inspired by His love and wisdom.
"Be Still" Slower with Music
"Be Still"
“Hold yourself close, closer, closer still, be comfortable in this solitude, breathe in and be still. Do not fear this level of vulnerability, It is the key to unlocking your strongest abilities.
Hold yourself close, closer, and closer still. Lend out your hand to the hidden child crying within you. Let them know they are heard, loved and being made to be brand new. Let your fears of rejection be released, realize nobody can hurt you even half as much as you believed. Hold yourself close, closer, closer still. Be silent and allow yourself to feel. Let your heart open up to the river of emotions flowing within you, open yourself to a mountain of endless liberation that is soon to find you. Hold yourself close, closer, closer still. Be still.”
Poem Explanation
Psalm 46:10 tells us “Be Still & know that I Am God” but what does stillness really mean? This poem aims to explore this concept by imploring you to find stillness in all the things that typically give us a sense of discomfort in our fast paced reality. Find comfort in solitude and choose to hold yourself closer towards God’s embrace. Don’t be shy to acknowledge your childish and childlike nature before your Heavenly Father. Cry, scream or simply sit and do nothing. God wants to be there with you always. Hold yourself close, close and closer until you melt into the stillness of His holy presence. When you think you’ve already gotten close, God calls you to come even closer, little by little, day by day.
“Hold the soul in space, Hold the soul in grace hold the soul and listen to your heartbeat gently in pace. Do not get lost in the chase, allow things to fall into place. You have so much more grace than you are willing to face. This is not a race. This is all happening at its desired pace. Fill yourself with patience and you will see. Do not hurt your heart more than necessary. Feel your pains, learn from its company. You are more free within than it appears externally. Hold yourself in peace hold yourself in bliss. Follow the Holy Spirit. Listen to its promptings. God’s love is meant to guide you. Your purpose will surely find you. Simply hold yourself still. Breathe in, breathe out, become fully present in everything life presents. You are capable. You are beyond able. Hold yourself still. Breathe in, breathe out, be still and know that God is with you.”

God’s biggest request from those who choose to seek His face is for us to learn the value of stillness. “Be Still and know that I Am God” (Psalm 46:10) Making the conscious choice to catch yourself when you are being swept away by feelings of doubt, anxiety, depression, fear, the list goes on…can help you realize when you have taken your eyes off Jesus during the storm. You can walk by faith more smoothly when you realize that you are growing alongside the one who has the power to tell the winds of stress to stop. It may take some time, but you too will be able to rest peacefully throughout all seasons of your life as you allow God’s love to encourage, guide, and transform you.

“Do not fear the process that is happening inside, let emotions flow up. do not try to hide. As you let life flow you are sure to find that there is nowhere left to go except deep deep deeper into your soul. Nothing else can take you there except what you are experiencing right here, let things become bare. Do not be afraid to go there. Fear is a teacher, listen to her. Hear. The stillness within will continue to expand, As you continue to have no and have known fear.”

Realign and realize that you are already found
Do not go exploring any further
Because what you need,
You have never been without
Connect within yourself
Transcend this shell you are in
Give love and blessings to this self
And feel yourself expand from within
A life free of fears
Is not a life free of tears
Open up those gates
And allow yourself to fully feel and experience your heartaches
There’s no need to be afraid of them
We will always be here to guide you through it all
There’s no need to be afraid of them
Like a child you learn more every time you fall
So in your life you are not resigning to crawling
And instead you become aware of your capacity to stand tall.
But the only way to learn this is to transcend your perceived fear of falling
Fall so you can stand tall
Fall so you can stand tall
Fall so you can stand tall
Experience the deeper satisfaction
That comes with this process
Do not get lost in instant gratification
Allow things to unfold by laying your fear to rest
We will always be by your side
Fall deeper within yourself and you are sure to find
Just how much you too are incredibly divine
