the thief came in last night
what did he come for
he had no right
I fought him as best I could
but he was cunning and crafty
and up to no good
he quickly stole it
and ran off laughing
I could not take it
ended up crying
what more could I do
I wasn't anticipating
a heist, a coup
taking my prize, robbing
I just never knew
he took my joy
and I want it back
he took my joy
through his pathetic attack
that joy was a gift to me
blessed was it upon my head
each day I spread it eagerly
each night I hug it tight in bed
I am gonna get it back
just you wait and see
no damn blasted liar
is going to defeat me
after all I am a princess
I am royalty
seated above
in the Heavenlies
the most awesome King
my Father
whose name I love to sing
He can't rob me
He has no right
He can't take anything
from me
I am going to fight
I stand up and raise up
my voice to my King
I lift up and shout out
my urgent plea
Oh Jesus my Saviour
I praise you and thank you
for goodness surrounds you
your heart is to bless
but my heart is breaking
I simply must confess
I know you will hear me
when I call out Your name
please hold me and heal me
for your glory and fame
I wait for you Jesus
to fill me so full
of blessing upon blessing
and love unconditional

hugs! Don't worry, the devil can't steal your joy, just make you think so for a bit...I know all about it! Have a lot to tell you sometime soon, sorry I didn't get back to you today...

Lydia my friend,
I have lessons to learn on how to fight like you. No shrinking back in discouraged defeat, shame, or numbing fear...no...there's you - running into those wide open arms and resting in confidence that He is your great defender, your strong warrior...the breaker of all lies. ahhh may He love you back to bliss. He's soooo very good at that. Nuzzle in where it's safe.
Love, love, love you xo
praying for you,
Cirra
