I know you're not supposed to be a distraction,
I just wonder what God was up to
when He made my soul's natural reaction
loving, trying, and dying for you.
It's not about needing your affection,
it's not about what you do or don't do
It is about your soul's affliction,
and the suffering I watch you go through.
I pray for the Lord's intercession
there's nothing He can't do.
And He tells me I can do nothing
except be there for you.
And so continue to hurt me,
if that's what you must do.
I just know my prayers are working,
even if I can't see what they do.
God is so much bigger than all of this.

I was wrong, I'm sorry, and I love you.
I hear this song, I worry, and I fear too.
That these letters I'm writing won't be well received,
that the good fight I'm fighting dies with me.
I know God has assigned me to brave these stormy seas.
Anything that finds me will have to face Thee.
And there you will guide me, Lord, your will- let it be.
I was wrong, I'm so sorry, and Lord please help them to see
I want the best for them, just like you have given me.
I pray that when they read my words it is only You they will see.
That heaven shines down and warms them through words you've given me.
Lord I have so much of Your love to give, just please do this through me.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!

I am speechless
and enjoying every second.
God saw my broken life
and lovingly wrecked it.
Took all the things I could never heal,
and mended them with love and peace.
He made miracles happen inside me.
Now there's something living
where there once was only death
And I can't help but find myself giving
Him my every breath.
surrender.

I always, sort of,
knew I'd be here.
In the midst of
a divine calling
upon my life.
I never knew
I could be
so at peace
and so scared,
at the same time.
But that's just
the human in me
and that's completely fine.
I have never been headed
in any direction
that has felt so
right.
I cannot wait to see where He is taking me, but I can all at the same time! :)

nobody can truly know
another person's trouble

even if they walk the same
path there are different rocks
underfoot.

I’d sleep better
if your chest
was my pillow
and you were
here to hold me.
