Take Courage

Be strengthed...dear mother
Take courage...faithful father
The Lord your God has heard your cry
He knows the desires of your heart...

Look...He is coming!

He is coming with vengeance
To rescue your prodigal
From the grip of the enemy, the robber, the thief
Who is intent on destroying your dear one.
Your God is coming to save...

He promises
That this dear one of yours...
Blinded eyes will be opened...
Deaf ears will be unsealed...
This precious one of yours
Will leap with freedom
Will sing songs of joy...

For this God of yours
Is causing His fountain of living water to burst forth
In the wilderness and wasteland of your dear ones land...
This God of yours
Is filling the parched , barren land
With His living springs of Life
As He reveals His magnificent unfailing love...

New is awakening
Rising up
Sprouting
Bursting forth...

Take courage, dear mother
Hold unto your faith, faithful father
Your precious prodigal will return.
Return with singing, joy, and with gladness,
Entering into all that was intended from the beginning,
Overflowing with abundant life...

Yes...so much more than you can imagine at this time.

This is the promise of the One
Who created the heavens and the earth out of nothing
Who raises the dead
Who calls forth that which is not
Who loves you, dear mother and father, beyond measure
Who loves your prodigal so much more than you ever could...

Take courage
Steady your trembling knees
And trust your mighty, kind, good, Father.

He does not disappoint!
