i am just a cog in the machine.
a tool of the man
but i know God
will still use me
for his Purpose.

so call me a tool
but this tool serves
a purpose.

For those who feel inadequate. You have a purpose. God sees you. God knows you. God can use you wherever you're at.

Kelsie.

if I could replace all the
words in every book
with your name
I would,

but no amount of words on a page
could ever compare to what your heavenly
father calls you:

His daughter.
His most prized possession.
The one who took the nails
so that you may live.

so dry your tears
and dance with Him.
for He dances beside you even
on your darkest nights.

For my dear friend Kelsie. I love you! God loves you.

love letter to Him.

i've loved and lost
but i am thankful for
the stars that guided my way
back to Your heart.

my Redeemer.

I want to pick you up
and carry you in my pocket
for the rest of my days.

little did I know that
you'd be the one to
carry me for the rest
of my days.

For God, my Redeemer lives.

what else could it be but You?

yesterday I wanted to die.
Today I want to praise God.

alcoholism.

my friend in the bottle
took over my life
now I’m struggling for my life.

my tears.

there is no hole
big enough to fill
the satisfaction of my misery.
even my tears overwhelm
the ocean from which
all life swims.

instead i keep my tears
locked away in a reservoir
where the demons feed off them.
