breaking the hush

Who am I that God would speak to me? Speak through me? Show me God, what part of me is keeping me from seeing your face? What impurities? Break me and burn me! Kill this flesh! I wake up, longing to die! To see your face! What else matters? The walls that contain me are the walls I want, no, I need you to fill! Every crack and crevice! Bring repentance –show me what to sacrifice, what to lay at the altar and kill! Only dead men can see your face. Even now, I think of all I must surrender, and I declare, “It’s worth it!” To see the face of God, the Creator, the I AM! Show me the degree of sacrifice I must make to be able to kiss your cheek! I am not even happy with just seeing you – I must touch my lips to your cheek. Repentance=Brokenness=Purity=Intimacy. Kill me!

“He must increase, but I must decrease.” –John 3:30
