Sometimes I see a world of wonder
Sometimes I wonder about what I see;
There’s so very much that I don’t know
Life is such a mystery.
What lies beneath the oceans depths
Or hidden caverns in the earth;
What genetics have been mutated
What new species have given birth?
Does anything live in earth’s molten core
Or thrive in the arctic ice;
I guess knowing in the after life
Is all that will suffice.
God’s such an awesome artisan
To have created such a place;
This world is so amazing,
I want to tell Him face to face.

Great is the Lord our God
Redeemer of all mankind
Eraser of all our sins
Answer to all our prayers
Tied to a cross He died
For us He was crucified
Unworthy of all He’s done
Loved by God’s own Son.

An awesome comradery
A sisterhood for sure;
A genuine feeling of getting along
A love of God so pure.
An excitement of sharing the classes
Of learning more about the Lord;
How to handle life better
A class we can all afford.
Encouraging one another
Sharing the love of Christ;
Building a good foundation
For living a daily life.

My world is better because of you
I thought that you should know.
You keep me sage and give me strength
Where ever we may go.
You work so hard to provide for me
And sometimes I forget to be grateful
And sometimes I’m just a pain in the ****
Who doesn’t realize she’s being hateful.
I know I take you for granted
But I’m glad that you’re my man;
You’re the one who takes care of me
When life gets out of hand.
You encourage me to do more
Then I could ever do myself
And I pray that I am there for you
When ever you need help.
I want to be the one to give you strength
To be the shoulder you lean on;
To always be there by your side
No matter what may come.
I need you to know I love you.
I need you to know I care;
About our lifetime of commitment,
And the love that we both share.

You have no idea the relief it is
When depression goes away
Especially when I look back to remember
Just how long it stayed.
Years and years of medicines
Though none really did the trick.
I zoned out like a zombie,
Or else they made me sick.
I would cry myself to sleep at night
and pray for death each day.
I even thought to end it all
But God had a better way.
I stepped out of my comfort zone
In obedience to Him;
And immediately the depression left,
I was no longer overwhelmed.
It weighs you down so heavy
That you’re buried in the pain.
You hurt from all the aching
Til you think you’re insane.
So, when those imps of satan leave you
It’s amazing how you feel;
When God lift’s that crushing burden
You know at once it’s real.
No more thoughts of dying.
I don’t cry myself to sleep
I joy in all the promises
I know that He will keep.
And even though there’s hardships
My spirit is at rest;
With God, I am an over comer
And through Him I am blessed.

Whoever said pain was all in my head
Obviously hasn’t felt any.
It’s hard to look past pain.
Dalton can say pain doesn’t hurt
All he wants on roadhouse
But this is the real world.
Pain reaches out like a bolt of lightening
To remind you it’s there.
I have learned to endure
But it doesn’t make the struggle any easier.

I hate that pain sees to shake my faith.
I’m afraid to pray for healing
When I have
And it doesn’t seem to be working.
I know there is a God
And he can do all things
I’ve seen it;
So what is wrong with me?
I use to be sure my faith was strong enough
I even quit my meds
But obviously that didn’t work.
My faith must not be strong enough.
God teach me how to make it stronger,
Help me figure it out.
You’re the only one who can make miracles happen.

One of these days
Where nothing’s right
A ******* up memory
With which to fight.
Forgetting things
I shouldn’t have
Hating how
It’s got so bad.
Causing trouble and confusion
For everyone else.
God please help me to be able
To help myself.
Between appointments missed
And kitchen fires
I feel like a circuit
With messed up wires.
I need to know
What I shouldn’t forget;
Dear God could you please
Just help me with it.

Surviving through
Another night of pain
Having only myself to blame.
Not being careful
Or noticing enough
Is why I’m having to endure this stuff
Ever ache and pain
Has a piggy back;
Cause diabetes catches hold
And throws everything off track.
What might be a little pain in my thigh
Will also jump to my stomach without knowing why,
So many pains that can’t be explained
Except to say you’re diabetes;
You can search high and low
For the answer to know.
But you might as well just forget it
There’s no understanding reasoning why
Pain accelerates til you just want to cry
You try to manage but mostly you endure
And you pray everyday
That they just find a cure.

God guide this day
With your blessing and grace;
Judge not with justice
But put mercy in its place.
Look not to the doings
But to the intent of the deed;
Let our thoughts be guided
By your planted seed.
When confusion sets in
Lord send us your peace.
The one that passes understanding
And sends comfort through grief.
When worthlessness and depression
Come knocking at my door;
Lord double the reinforcements
That weren’t there before.
When the voices say that no one loves you
Help me remember that’s not true;
When all the world has turned against me
Let me know there’s trust in you.
When my prayers feel like no one’s coming
And I cannot hear your voice;
Let me see past circumstances,
Let having faith always be my choice.
