Cradled in His strength

discovering a new kind of freedom

Cradled in His strength

Like the flame to a moth
His strength draws, entices
The little one to His arms
Where He can cradle her close
Protect and keep her

The flames of His strength
Burn away her fears
Releasing desires once caged
By fear of judgment
Freeing passions once bound
By society’s morality
Untying knots long made
By other’s principles

She quivers as He frees her
Only to bind her with her trust

Bound only by her trust
His strength lifts her high
She soars on the waves of His breath
Flies in the passions of His hands
No boundaries but those He commands

With His touch, His word
Shivers cascade through her soul
She circles close, reluctant
He encourages her to rise
Test her desires, her passions

He commands; she obeys
Reaching deep, she lets go
Spreads her wings upon His strength
And ascends with wonder
To new peaks and valleys

She trembles as He guides her
Cradled in His strength
