The cry

Man what a day. So much to be thankful for. well here Im at it again I was just spending some time thinking(uh oh) but also praying. What seems to be the message Im feeling God putting on me for today is for lack of better words "The cry".
All of us after being brought into the family of God are given a cry just like a baby being born...because well, we are still being born. Paul spoke in Romans that all creation groans for the children of God to be revealed and then He states that we to are given that groan deep within our spirits. For example the earth takes in a breath and it breaths in and its spring and there is life....and then as if breathing out it all dies and winter comes. Also like in Narnia the world was frozen. our world is subject to death, we as children of God our mortal bodies are subject to death. But each of us is given the groan of creation deep in our Spirits and its the groan of a universe subject to sin, its the groan for the manifestation of the king of glory and the day when death is swallowed up by life. Yet Iv noticed because of my desire for comfort I have stuffed down that cry and sometimes even mistook it for demonic oppresion.
But what would happen if we were to start releasing this cry in our prayer life? What if we were to take the lid off this thing and let it out. Im sure of one thing it would take us over. And without a doubt that is exactly what it does and your prayer becomes groans that words cannot utter. Deep calling unto deep.
The Spirit and the bride say come.
