The Lioness

I’m always looking for the “you” to show yourself. Often hidden behind quietness is much wisdom.

I can see it.

Jesus sees it.

But you hold it still super close to your chest.

I often wonder is it the pain of the past that has silenced you, the rejection from others that made you go into that shell, or some lack of confidence that keeps you covered up.

Forming you in the womb was God’s sheer delight. Part of your personality might well be a bit of shyness but I can still see the lioness in you.

One day soon the Christ is gonna roar and all that He placed in you will show itself. It might even shock you.

But… until that day comes I’ll keep peeling back those layers of pain, reminding you who and whose you are, and just wait…for….it….

But, boy oh boy, that devil is sure hoping you’ll stay in retreat mode. He spent years making sure you’d never speak, never see, never have the courage to walk in the authority Christ is handing you.

Yet Christ ordered your steps and made sure you’d be with others who would press into prayer on your behalf.

What a really bad day for that devil that’s coming soon. He knows it full well. That’s why you’re in the middle of that storm.

The storm is the evidence that the lioness is about to come onto the scene…

And when that happens, dear one, that unique, lioness roar of yours is gonna be a Hell-wrecking game changer with Jesus.
