Layers

Youre attitude festers like an open wound. Its a wound that never heals, for you constantly tear at the scab that would serve as protection and healing. Youre isolation has been built by you, years of construction, using the most durable products; such as pride, stubbornness, rejection, unforgiveness and the ugly roots of bitterness.
Youre life is not really life at all. Sure you exist, but existing is all you do. You breathe without even giving it a thought, but youve closed out love, the very core of life!
Youve suffocated love with your independence, but is it independence at all. Arent you a slave to yourself, your loneliness is your authority which rules your daily existence. You listen to loneliness lies and miss out on any sign of hope of connection with someone else who loves you. Its cut off and becomes stagnant, never moving forward, nor behind, caught in a realm of settling. No one can get in and youre dying to get out!
All the love that has ever come your way has ricocheted off your thick exterior of isolation. It tries to seep in thru any crack or crevice where in the past you may have let your guard down, but loneliness is right there waiting eagerly to make the repairs and build your isolation barrier stronger and sturdier. There is only one remedy, but loneliness has told you so many lies, its hard to hear the truth. Its not impossible to let the remedy in, but you have to really want it, really be tired of the struggle and get out of your comfort zone that really brings no comfort at all. No one can touch your soul except the very one who wants to be your cure, your healing, and your life! If you listen for him carefully, when loneliness has settled in for the evening, its in that hour when you can see the flicker of hope burning on the outside. All you have to do is reach thru the barrier and grab it. Let the light of God pierce thru and disinigrate the layers of mortar that loneliness has built for you over the years. Let the light flow thru every artery and vein of who you are and for the first time experience life. You will be swept off your feet by the peace that will rush over you, thru you, above you, below you. You will be forgiven and therefore will be able to forgive. You will be healed and your isolation will be no more for you will be in the presence of God, dancing a victory dance, celebrating the death of loneliness and the resurrection of you.
