reverse fade

 
tension and confusion
left cracks
in my spirit
the air grew thin
as light faded
harder each day
to inhale Him
but even as I was letting go
He held me strong
I grabbed hold
before all hope leaked away
 learning anew
 how to breathe
exhale anxiety
inhale peace
exhale defeat
inhale victory
exhale self
inhale Jesus
life, light and joy returning
not in drips 
now in cascades

 May the God of your hope 
so fill you with all joy and peace in believing 
[through the experience of your faith] 
that by the power of the Holy Spirit 
you may abound 
and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.
