Rock?	Sonshine	Trust	Holy Spirit	Mountains
The Best	Battles	Forgive	Sleeplessness	1^st Love

I saw mountains, unscaleable rock

Rising from grave, snow on top –

Religious ways, set in cement.

Pillars of the establishment.

But what the Lord wanted to see

Was melting malleability.

His warmth waited to melt the snow

Allowing rivers of Truth to flow.

I said “Come Lord, and melt my heart:

Please do it now, please make a start.”

The rivers flowed, the mountains shrank

The valleys rose from the river’s bank –

‘Til the only thing that I could see

was flowers and grass in front of me.

A place to rest, a place to play

Where only God is heard each day –

Uncompromising Truth and Love

Flowing to earth from heaven above.

I went to walk with Jesus.

He held my hand in His –

We danced along in sunshine –

my heart was filled with bliss.

We wandered through the meadows

stopped to admire the view –

He said "I will open doors

impossible for you –

Though it may seem very hard

going My chosen Way –

I'll sprinkle you with stardust,

I'll break unyielding clay."

God said

Trust Me for the little things

that concern you each day.

Trust Me for enormous things.

Slow down, relax and pray.

I'll take your little molehills,

I'll take your mountains too.

I will deal with everything

that is troubling you.

You'll have to give each problem

in it's complexity –

With it's substance and shadows

entirely to Me.

Remember, unforgiveness

will hide Me from your sight –

So forgive everyone, or

you'll be in a sad plight.

I wanted the Holy Spirit .

I wanted to be filled.

I wanted all the Power of God

to do all that He willed.

Yet, I was week not powerful.

I learned, surprisingly -

God's Spirit I obtain, equals

how much He has of me.

So I stopped offering to Him

my own will to endorse.

Instead I offer emptiness

to be filled at Life's Source.

A high mountain confronted me

But as I climbed aloft –

Those mighty peaks shrank visibly

Each time I climbed a rock.

Just as God takes all my ‘mountains’

And makes each a ‘molehill’ –

If I do everything His Way.

If I just do His Will.

You must give your best to Me

for I am God.

Follow, always, My Son’s Way

go where He trod.

Never keep just for yourself

a single thing.

I will give you back again

a song to sing.

A song of Peace, Joy and Love,

My everything.

My Gifts will be more precious

than any gold.

Telling the world of My Love

you must be bold.

Follow, always, My Son’s Way

go where He trod.

You must give your best to Me

your only God.

“My child, are you fighting battles

that you cannot seem to win?

Have you got all the Armour on

That was given by your King?

If sin is enclosed in that Armour

Then you’re as good as sunk –

You’re sitting on a branch that’s cut

Between you and the trunk”.

“As I forgive your sins, My child

you must also forgive;

For if you harbor resentment

In My Peace you won’t live.

Unconditionally forgive

Then your turmoil will cease –

For if you won’t forgive others

You won’t know full release.”

I went to bed but couldn’t sleep,

I tossed and turned and counted sheep,

I tried relaxing, limb by limb,

I hummed a chorus, sang a hymn,

Rebuked all Evil in Christ’s Name,

My sleeplessness was just the same!

I knew Christ Jesus said “Obey -

Then I’ll be with you every day”

So remembered each ‘little’ sin

And repented of everything.

Forgave each person who’d hurt me

(even though it was not easy)

At Christ’s Cross put each burden down,

Turned and left that enormous mound.

As I blessed everyone in prayer

I knew the Risen Christ was there.

My anxious thoughts became quite calm.

I was woken by my alarm.

Christ said “Your first love must be only Me.

Not your husband or wife – your love is the Key –

To the Power of My Spirit that will fill you to the brim –

The Key to your conquering all of your Sin.

I am the Door to the Way you must go.

I will protect you from each of your foe,

But I must be first – not your garden or car,

Not your cricket, or soccer, or golf, or the bar.

I must be first in your heart – it’s My due.

When I died on the Cross My Blood paid for you.”
