When your mind is shattered
Your eyes are blinded
There is pain everywhere
you go
Don't give up and
Don't give in

When the wheel of fortune
is stuck at 6
No hope remains
Don't give up
Don't give in
Noon will be coming around
again

When loneliness is
your only friend
and
it keeps calling you names
Don't give up
and
Don't give in

There are times
when life is
ablaze with horrors
but
Don't give up
and Don't give in

Those that survive
are those that find meaning
those that passively
take to their bed
are bound
to
perish
Don't give up
Don't give in

When the law's
got your name
and no payment can be
made
and
you have to go
along with their plans
that have been laid,
Inside, where you hide
Don't give up and
Don't give in.

Time only stops
once
Don't give up
Don't give in.

If ours was a story
that could be told differently
Darling, might I tell you
what I would do?

Change every setting,
every scene that's upsetting
and replace it with something
good and brand new.
Because yours is a story
I never let you tell
for fear of
what that might do.

But now I know different,
I know who I am
and what it is I see in you.
A star that's on fire
and beautifully grand,
and there's nothing that you
couldn't do.

I'd paint you a picture
of purpose and plans
and give you
the bright,
shining moon.

So that when you
close your eyes,
and there I am
I weaved only
warmth and good
memories inside of
*you.

I used to  scream-
with my voice
with my actions
with my soul
with my aching needs.

But I do not do that anymore.
No...
I just don't feel the need.
God's love conquers all things.
What do you have to lose?

I am more like
Monroe
than
Edgar Allan Poe-
and what a
relief
that is!

A very good read!
Did you know it was this wonderful woman's birthday?
Happy birthday, doll!
I hope my musical will make you
smile!

That issue you struggle with
You pray for it and wait.
The thing your heart yearns for-
should only build your faith!
Because the moment you become
a warrior of Joshua's
who wants to give up-
is the moment you leave the battlefield
with an empty cup.
God gave me a glimpse
of a promise,
just yesterday.
But I was weak and weary in my faith.
The praising and rejoicing
soon faded away...
in the light of His word.
I soon grew ungrateful...wondering
when it would be my next turn.

So don't stop at six, friends,
no...
do NOT give up.
For that thing,
you are circling
the walled cities for
will soon fill your cup!
The six times you must walk around the walls
are to prepare you for receiving His PROMISE!
Do not waste that time.
But walk humbly and learn.

You were never meant
to build dams.
So what flows to you,
should flow through
you.
share the blessings.
Testify.

I remember kissing you goodbye
in your driveway, in the rain.
I remember pain...
I still feel it.
But I know,
this is God loving me,
one in the same.
I just had to lose you
to reveal it.
God's discipline is proof of His love. He is out to see the greatness inside you come out. You are far too loved to be left alone!
