Canon 5D Mark ll, 16-35 2.8L, 3.5 aperture, 1/500 shutter, 100 ISO

And when I can bear it no more, the rushing, the deadlines, the pressures of pleasing and making perfect, I come. I come and He is waiting. Why do I wait so long? It is an ongoing invitation. Come and rest. I lay myself down and He shines His brilliance into my weary heart. He warms and comforts. He surrounds me in light and vivid color. My heart expands, finding life again. I breathe in and then exhale. ” Yah-weh”. My spirit knows it is home. I surrender. Again. With every tear that rolls down, the burden lightens, and He captures them in bottles as treasure. I marvel at His beauty, His tangible love. Why do I wait for this?

Matthew 11:29 ~”Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Psalm 56:8 ~ “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.” (NLV)

I hope to come sooner next time.
