From (God bless you Lynn!!!) The Sacred Romance: Drawing Closer to the Heart of God

Quote from the book:

We listen and we are aware of … a sigh. And under the sigh is something dangerous, something that feels adulterous and disloyal to the religion we are serving. We sense a passion deep within that threatens a total disregard for the program we are living; it feels reckless, wild. Unsettled, we turn and walk quickly away, like a woman who feels more that she wants to when her eyes meet those of a man not her husband. ... Something calls to us through [suffering] and rouses an inconsolable longing deep within our heart, wakening in us a yearning for intimacy, beauty,and adventure. ... Discover your soul's deepest longing and ... embrace it as the most important part of your life.

My response:

Abba – Jesus – Holy Spirit 

Please embolden and empower me to embrace the longing  –  the vortex of hunger, need, and despair. It is only homesickness. Help me to fall into it and get lost in the freefall. For there I now know I will find Your arms, Your love, and Your heart – and my own.

I have been trying in my own self-effort to stop or control the hunger in order to stop overeating. This is exactly backwards!!! I need to glut myself on the black hole of need – hurl myself, abandon myself into the consumption of it. Throw every hindrance aside and pig out on God.

Little Bird come and light down. Withdraw and settle into my Holy Spirit like a little dove resting under her mother's wings. Settle in and repose with stillness in utter safety. Soak Me in and do absolutely nothing but trust Me.

As you are able to calmly withdraw and relax in Me, you will be:

avenged
defended
helped
preserved
and
rescued

You will be altogether, absolutely, eternally safe.

Then you will rise up like a mighty eagle and FLY on the heights! You will soar on the four winds of the heavens -- the Breath of my Spirit -- shimmering with My splendor.


Inspired by the original Hebrew of Isaiah 30:15-16.

Oh beloved little one. I have arrayed you with the flowers of the fragrance of Christ, and the wind of my Spirit blows over those flowers to spread that fragrance where He will. Hold tight to me, abide in me, and I will cause you to exude the aroma of Myself to all who come near you.

Oh my beautiful lamb, I have made you without flaw or blemish for your good and my glory. Find your worth in Me, for you are a creature of infinite value. Also find your rest in Me as I carry you next to My heart. Feel your weight relaxing into the strength of My everlasting arms, arms that will never, no never, let you go. Be still with me in that safe place.

I have deep, tender affection for you like a child has for a beloved pet. I died to have your company; come and feast on the banquet I have prepared for us. I delight in you; delight yourself in Me. I am with you, even to the end of the age.
