Revelation of 4/23/2010

Up until a few months ago life was giving me a pretty significant beating and it was if my feet were nailed to the floor. I couldnt fall in defeat and I could run away. The strength I had to defend myself was quickly drained. What I realize now is that I wasnt receiving the full force of the blows. Christ was standing so close to me that what I was feeling wasnt life hitting me, but life hitting Him into me. He was standing so close that I almost couldnt see Him. He had the strength to keep us both standing. I couldnt fall or run because Christ was keeping me in the only truly safe place that exists, the embrace of His arms.
