the container

I once saw an image of a large container like the ones at 
the docks in my dream
as i wondered what it could mean
a smile soon began to gleam
God was showing me that our situations can not contain us 
our circumstances can not contain us
even a large container has a door
there is always a way out
God will guide us through the dark valleys and get us out
the other side
when things are pressing in he will pull us out
nothing above or below nothing  can take us from his hand
Jesus came to set the captives free 
nothing can contain you
nothing can contain me  Amen

Jesus came to set us free Amen
Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
