This symbolism is used in the bible over 150 times.
Am I in too deep to fully understand? Where is this land so dark and cold? I have tried to escape this oppressive darkness that lives just beyond the perimeter of my mind… But the enemy has discovered my location. They seek to destroy my peace and erode my confidence! My heart is pounding, my mind racing as beads of sweat slowly drip from my brow… Am I defeated? Am I a lost soul? Doubt is swirling throughout my ravished existence… Will I lose my will to survive? Am I slowly losing my grip… How will I find the strength to endure??
As I rest in this negative moment, I can hear your soothing voice say lean into me, my child.
We’ve got this!!
And as those words become alive in my mind … I feel your presence so strong as you press your soul against mine… It is there we become the power of one! It's there; I have found a strength that I did not know existed!!! Your courage and heart are the reason I will not be defeated!! I will stand! I will draw my sword! And I will fight until I draw my last breath. Your love has become my shield and my purpose. Your forgiveness has become my peace.
Teach me your ways… You are my gentle giant! You have brought me from the pit of darkness into God’s heavenly light… I will only surrender to you! I will only bow to you, my King!! It’s you! It's always been you!!!
Thank you for showing me your power and grace… and for loving me far more than I deserve!!!
It's Him. It will always be HIM !!!
Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll. Revelation 5:5
