" Rise and Rise Again, until Lambs become Lions."
Have you ever read something, or listened to a song, or heard the words of someone speaking that resonated life, power, a lush beauty, joy, and love.
I have had this happen plenty of times through out my life, and when I heard this quote for the first time it was almost as if that part of the script was written just for me.
Many of you may know that this quote is from the movie Robin Hood starring Russell Crowe.
"Rise and Rise Again, until Lambs become Lions." I will always carry these words with me.
On this journey of rediscovering who I am, of rediscovering life, I am finding myself in a place of the 'no more.'
No more lying on the ground! No more feeling sorry for myself! No more being angry! No more being tired! No more believing lies! No more being offended! No more speaking deadly words! It's Time To Rise Again.
I have made many mistakes, I have been hurt, and have hurt others. I have been broken, and I have cried many tears. I have had many sleepless nights. I have survived long dark days. This was my life. I had forgotten who I was. I lost my way. But all was not lost.
Deep inside of me, pass all the disgust and pain that layered my heart, there it was. The still, small, yet mighty voice that said, "It is Time."
" This life isn't just about you. Don't think for one moment that what you do just effects you. Don't think that the life I gave you to live was just for you. Remember who you are! Rise Up Warrior and Take Your Stand! I am with you."
I was created with passion. I was created with love. I am from God. My Father is the King and I am His Princess. My very essence is beauty and strength. Warrior's blood flow through my veins. I am a life giver. I was made with wings, and I can fly on the wind and the sound of His voice. I have been given a sword. A sword that abolishes lies, fear, and death, but brings love, life, and hope to the weak. This is my design, the blueprints of me. I am Finding myself and I am Rising once Again.
The doubt may come, but I will not lose hope. Fear may show his face, but I will not go down without a fight. This person may hurt me and that person may abandon me. My world may totally be shaken, but I will I only gain strength from it, because someone Greater is on the inside of me and I am More than the destruction that will come my way.
I may fall a thousand times in several ways. But I will always Rise and Rise Again.
I will rise in beauty, I will rise in faith, I will rise in strength, I will rise in love. I Will Rise A LION!
