Stop Running • Start Chasing
Stop running away, Start Chasing after it.
Face my fears HEAD ON.
Hello there.
It's been a year since I've written.
I believe I'm in a very different place right now.
I can't say that I've solved all of my life problems, but one thing I'm sure.
I got to know God - my daddy - much better.
We got closer, and ever since, I'm clinging unto Him every moment I'm breathing.
It's a beautiful thing really.
His patience towards me, His kindness, His goodness, His unfailing love.
Again and again, He has proven to be ever so faithful.
Even when I'm at the edge of giving up,
He was there holding me tight.
I've been running away a lot.
From a very young age, I've faced many things - some traumatic.
Mostly things that made me fearful of life and people.
In June 2016, He revealed to me the greatest fear that I've been suppressing and hiding from,
and my life was never the same.
Darkness was surrounding, I was alone in that crooked path.
I see no hope or future for myself.
As if my life is coming to an end.
But in the darkness, He set a table before me and fellowshipped with me,
in that very darkness I know that I can trust Him with my life.
Sometimes pain and sorrow could not be healed instantly.
But He is good. He is faithful. He is beautiful.
He took hold of my hand and told me
"Trust me, and let me love you."
And then I realise, the only thing that I need to do is to thread upon deeper waters,

Every breath I take
Is a breath to say
I'm yours and forever

You drown my fears in perfect love
Shaking lose the sand that I've been gripping on, and calling me to let go.
I will fall into His loving arms.
Stop putting your worth on how people perceive and treat you.
Your worth is in my love for you.
Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
You are worth more than rubies
You are worthy to be loved
You are worthy to be cherished
You are worthy to be valued
You are my precious daughter
And just let me love you.
Hey Iris,
You're
not
perfect.
And...It's okay. He is perfect and lives in you.
When you're lost, broken, weak, fragile, tired, hopeless.
Know
That
He
Is
God
Know
That
He
Will
Be
There
For
You
Till
The
Very End.
