Darkest Part

God has reminded me of a time where I felt like I was alone,
where I felt lost and alone even when I was in crowded room,
I still felt lost and lonely and I didn’t understand why?
Why would I feel this way even though I had Jesus in my heart,
I shouldn’t feel incomplete right?
But something that God reminded me was I don’t just need him in my heart,
I need him in my LIFE!
In every area and that I had put him in box and would bring him out when I needed help.
You know those dark times in life I would pull him out and ask him to take care of the
issue and when it was better and life was going pretty well.
I would push him back and pull out the other fun boxes like the work box or the
boyfriend box putting my energy and time in to those areas of life until I needed to pull
God back out again.
But the greatest thing about that is God kept fighting for our relationship and he never
gave up on me.
Even when I was mad at him, he kept pushing me closer to my dreams,
which pushed me closer to him.
What I’ve learned through that is don’t use God for just the bad times in life,
make time for a real relationship with you because I guarantee he is trying to have one
with you.
So keep pushing AND give your darkest parts to God.–

BENEATH THE SAND

My heart sinks beneath the sand, gasping to get a moment of relief for myself,

hopeful moment of relief a moment of freedom and relaxation, I reach a hand

toward the surface, it breaks more as each of the words said to me settle

over my heart, and I come close to fresh air. I beg for it back but the ocean sea has a grip

on my heart, I sink deeper and deeper until I touch sand.

DAY BY DAY

Day by day I get more flowers to refill the ones that where taken from me

but at once as I’m walking to the garden, I see a man clothed in a robe that

only a king would wear and a crown upon his head he looks at me and says daughter no

need to go looking for more flowers, when you are the most beautiful flower.

PINK RAIN

“some days I wish it would rain just so no one could see the tears I cried for you, the wasted tears I cried for you to come back and see all the tears that stained the hardwood floors. Tears I’ll never get back. Because you never where here, you where never mine, only in my dreams. only in my dreams you where there to wipe the tears away, so for now I’ll walk down this rainy road and keep on dreaming.
