He heard you. When you cried from the depths of your weakness and heartache, He heard you. When you succeeded, surrendered, suppressed or sought wisdom .. He heard you. From the tiniest of your breaths in the wildest of winds, He heard you. From the depths of your despair and the peaks of your mountains, He heard you. Every whisper and word, every tear and every laugh. Every time you thought you could and every time you felt you couldn’t, He heard you. He prioritised the sound of your voice, He tuned His ear to your cries and He set His hands to the aches of your heart. He looked upon you with a love so consuming, and He heard you. When you mustered up the strength to utter a word of thanks, and even when you didn’t, He heard you. No moment went unseen, no joy went uncelebrated, no journey went unprotected and no thought went unnoticed. He looked for you and had His eye on you, when you hid yourself away and told yourself you were better in the shadows, He heard you. When answers never came though you desperately sought them, He heard you. He held your desperation in His hands, nurturing it into trust, patience and hope. He filled your pockets with faith and gave you the willingness to persevere, because He heard you. When you questioned His existence, He heard you, and His love did not waiver for you. In the seen and unseen, in the quiet and the chaos, He heard you. In your anger that exploded like fireworks in the night sky, He heard you. He dulled the excess of the pain, surrounded you with compassion and held you back from beating yourself into regret. When you fought back the tears, dried your own eyes and told yourself you’d do it alone, He heard you - and stayed with you. He never left your side, though you felt you were alone. He heard you in the depths of your heartache and He carried you. He gave you the determination you needed to put one foot in front of the other and try again, because when you said you’d had enough, He heard you. When you sat on the sidelines of life and released a sigh of exhaustion, He replenished you, He heard you. Don’t let silence fool you into believing you go unheard. He heard you. Trust Him. #100daycreativechallenge Follow @jacinta.nest on Instagram for more.
