Tell Your Heart to Beat Again...
I dare you to decipher what this means! Take your time... :P
(I did hear a couple of versions already, so I am bracing myself for more..)
For those of you who are wondering, "What in the world was she thinking??"…
Read on..
As mentioned in my profile, I enjoy drawing pictures from song lyrics, Bible verses, Quotes from books etc.. This particular Abstract Art was inspired by a combination of the first two mentioned above and a little bit of my medical knowledge .. :)
The Hippocampus is where all our memories are stored.. (FUN FACT #1)
Take a walk down memory lane today and you will see that you have scars from wounds both old and new… Wrong choices, Guilty pleasures, falling for temptations, repetitive sins.. Secret sins that stain scarlet have scarred us all ..
Wounds like these may or may not heal over time.. If there's a chance at complete healing it would be because of a Savior who was wounded for us. (1 Peter 2:24; Isaiah 53:5)
Imagine the contrast in that.. Sounds like acupuncture in one person heals another.. :P (to put it in the mildest sense ever..!)
Well the point I'm trying to make here is… Forgiveness is what heals you..
Allow Him to forgive you..
Allow your own self to forgive you..
Do not be too hard on yourself...
Jesus has forgiven me.. He healed me and gave me that chance to hope again… believe again…
And He will most gladly do the same for you - all you need to do is ask..
Find the song that inspired me and the story behind it here:
Danny Gokey - Tell Your Heart To Beat Again (Live)
The lyrics of the song goes like this:
You're shattered
Like you've never been before
The life you knew
In a thousand pieces on the floor
And words fall short in times like these
When this world drives you to your knees
You think you're never gonna get back
To the you that used to be
Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again
Beginning
Just let that word wash over you
It's alright now
Love's healing hands have pulled you through
So get back up, take step one
Leave the darkness, feel the sun
'Cause your story's far from over
And your journey's just begun
Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again
Let every heartbreak
And every scar
Be a picture that reminds you
Who has carried you this far
'Cause Love sees farther than you ever could..
In this moment heaven's working
Everything for your good
Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again
Your heart to beat again
And so my dear friend.. Hope in the Lord - He is able to restore you..
He has been doing it for years.. Trust Him on this..
DM if you'd like me to send you the original for prints.. :)
And I would love to hear your interpretation of the art in the comments below... There's a chance that you might notice something I didn't.. ;)
