Whatever Until

I will do whatever it takes.
I will pray and immerse myself in the Word.
I will continue to look forward.
I want to see the purposes of God fulfilled on the earth.
I can't just walk away from the people and the promises He has given me in the past.
Nothing or no one can prevent His purposes from being fulfilled.
None of us know how or when He is going to fulfill them.
It is not up to us who is there and not there.
It is up to God and His timing.

Trail of Tears

There are traces of lines upon my face left by the tears rolling down my cheeks.
There are times when I feel like I am coming undone.
When I am crumbling inside.
My tears keep flowing.
In the midst of my grief and pain.
I don't know when it is going to end.
I don't know which way is up or down.
I don't know when I am going to reach the bottom.
The grief and pain overwhelm me.
Out of that grief and pain comes beauty.
Through the collection of my tears, I have found treasures that I will hold onto for a long time to come.

Everyday Miracles

God gives us precious little babies.
He gives us the air we breathe,
The songs to sing,
The stars in the sky.
Each moment is God-breathed.
We must live life to the fullest.
We should not wait for something to happen but realize we all have a role to play.
Every moment is a gift that God breathes into existence.
Use them wisely and respectfullly.

Make Your Requests Known

He can move any mountain that stands in your way.
He offers you water to drink from a bottomless well.
Sometimes the only thing that stands in your way is yourself.
I wish that people would see the endless possibilities right in front of them.
I wish they would open their eyes and wake up.
I don't understand why people are so slow to act.
God can lead you in the right direction but you have choices to make.
If they are wrong there are lessons to be learned.

I Believe

If someone were to ask me if I still believe in miracles I would absolutely say yes.
Even after all I have experienced.  Even after seeing people I love experience similar difficulties.
God is sovereign.
He is in control.
God is the creator of the universe and holds everything in His hands.
God is the same yesterday today and forever.
I see an illuminating light coming.
My answer is, "I believe."
