“In the shadows of my mind is where His love lingers.”
The term "umbral" in a biblical context can be understood through its root meaning of "shadow" and its symbolism within scripture.
The word “umbral” does not appear directly in most English translations of the Bible.
However, the concept of “umbral” from the Latin umbra, meaning shadow, does appear frequently, especially in poetic and prophetic passages.
As night falls and the moon dances upon the starlit sky. I am drawn to seek your face…Am I but a love-sick soul???
You have gifted me the beautiful imagery of seeing you in my mind… These moments play like a movie in my head each time I close my eyes…
You, my Elohim, have left me desperately searching for you within the shadows of my mind… It’s a surreal vision… It’s warm and inviting and lingers on my skin like a soft summer breeze…
Is this a glimpse of our future, or is this just the longing I feel in the depths of my soul? The love I crave is not of this world. It’s a love that only you possess … It’s a beautiful rhythmic song and dance of our souls … You have such a magnetic pull on my heart…. How can I resist the temptation of resting in the shadow of your wings?
Oh, love, how do I hold on to this moment…. It still baffles me. How do I love you so? I can only pray that the crimson tide of Your love continues to engulf my soul, filling me with Your heavenly grace.
Thank you for the precious gift of you!!
Let me find you resting forever in the shadows of my mind... Allow my heart to share this beautiful love with our world.
And again, you take my breath away!
It’s You! It will always be you.
The lover of my soul!
Yes, you, Lord, are my refuge! Psalm 91:9
