Christian Mar 31
I am filled with so many thoughts
Filled with anxiety
Filled with frustration
Filled with irritability
I am so full there is barely any room
I need to loosen up
Too let my guard down and let people in
I need to stop hiding
Stop isolating
And quit the secrecy
I'm missing out on so much
I just need to let go
And let God take control
Christian Apr 6
How I long to be something more
Someone who reeks righteousness
Someone who speaks the truth
Someone who isn't afraid of change
Someone who doesn't worry about everything
Oh, how I long to be more than what I've always been
Somebody who is not a friend of sin
Somebody who loves everybody no matter their differences
Somebody who wants to live
I long to fly free
Free from the shackles holding me
Free from my modus operandi
Free from my current self
I'm tired of who I am
Tired of the anxiety that plagues me
Tired of the lust that overtakes me
Tired of self-isolating
Oh, I long for love
Not just any kind of love
A love that understands
A love that doesn't leave you
A love that is genuine
Kind
And not only for a short period of time
Lord Jesus shows me this love daily
And I never tire of his love
But I want to experience love from someone on this Earth
Someone who loves me for me
And I will love them for who they are
I long for the new
The new people
The new experiences
The strongholds broken
Oh, I long to be something more
Christian Apr 19
I want to live
Not as I've been living
But live with a purpose
Live in such a way that invites adventure
Fulfillment
And love
I am not talking about the life of a fictional character
But the life of a follower of Jesus Christ
You may be fine with a dull and repetitive life
But I'm not
I want to conquer my fears and anxieties
I want to experience what it truly means to live
You see life is a beautiful thing
It's so beautiful that I don't want to waste any more of it living how the world wants me to live
Living the way God intended me to live is how I will be fulfilled
Spreading his word and obeying his commandments
Is the kind of purpose I want
It's the kind of adventure I long for
