Wake up, my dear friend.
"It's a new day today,
and I have a new song for you,"
said the yellow-bellied sunbird.
Woke up to a beautiful song sung by a bird outside my window. The little bird told me to wish you a very good morning.Have a lovely day🌷
It is not
Within
My
Power
To remove myself
From the loving hands
Of the living God.
Reciting this like a mantra recently. I'm trying so hard to remember this. I feel like I've disappointed Him in so many ways. I've sinned and rebelled again and again and I truly can't believe that anyone could  love me enough to save me from myself. I don't even love myself that much. And I try hard to remember that my feelings do not overcome His power,  so I just lay in the dark, whispering "Please, Please, Please don't leave me" until I fall asleep.
You are the morning ray
into my dreaming eyes
I enjoy you every day
as my early sunrise

You are the blooming flower
in my teeming garden
I delight in your scent
as the adoring bees

You are the gentle shower
on my yearning skin
I cherish your drizzle
as the green leaves

You are the moonlight
in my dark night
I relish your surging tide
as the ocean waves

You are the bright star
in my broken sky
I love you so much
more than anyone else
Fate is a neon-lit pinball machine
And I am a little steel ball
Dodging the "tilt" sign as best I can

How many of you remember pinball machines
How many of you don't know what they are
