What It Means To Draw Breath
My friend, may your joy be full and your heart be glad,
as you had a vision that reached up past the sky.
In your vision which was divinely given, stairs appeared
to come down from the heavens,
a circular, stone stair case, rails not included.
Then who do you see? Why it is our Lord walking down
the stairs. You are on the stairway with Him... then He bids you
to look all around you at the sea of broken humanity.
So many of His children who are in such want and need, ones
who have given up on what it means to draw breath.
Then the Lord said to you my dear friend, that He does not
like to see cowardice in His people, and that you must let them
know that the Lord still loves them so.
That might have been where the vision ended but it is where
your journey must start.
To go out in obedience, expressing to the lost, His lost sheep
all that our Lord has placed upon your heart. So that His people
will gain courage to rise and learn to walk again with the surety
of His presence which is always with them!
