Like a Lion

"My God is not dead,
He's surely alive,
And He's living on the inside
Roaring like a lion."
-David Crowder Band

Anytime I hear this lyric, I think about "The Chronicles of Narnia". I think about Aslan and how he was resurrected at the Stone Table.

How even death could not defeat him...
How he sprang back to life and engaged in the war...
How he defeated the White Witch...

Then I think about the comparison to Jesus Christ, the Lion of Judah.

How He lives within me...
How He wants me to engage in the spiritual war all around me...
How He can defeat the demons that plague me...

I feel Him roaring. He wants to get out and run free. He wants me to trust Him. Let go of the stress that I hold onto and to stop looking back.

I want to let go.
I want to have peace that never ceases.
I want the security that You bring.

I need You, Jesus!
I need You to come in my heart and revive me!
I need Your love!
                                                                                                                     
Mr. Tumnus - He's not a tame lion.
Lucy - No...but he is good.
