Be the one

Be the one that soothes my soul
Be the one that kindles the fire
Be the one that brings me to life
Be the one that loves all of me
Be the one that puts me first
Be the one that seeks me
Be the one that pursues me

Be the one that I pursue
Be the one I can't live without 
Be the one I love completely
Be the one I put first
Be the one I think of first 
Be the one I I live for
Be the one I take every breath for

Heavenly Father
Be the One

Comes in waves

Grief comes in waves. 
Healing seems to also

When you reach out finally
Express your sorrow for your actions 
Healing comes 

Freedom comes
Relief 

Time to move on 
Time to see what's next

It's time

My sin is no longer mine. 

I asked forgiveness 
I received it

Jesus took it
God threw it as far as the east is from the west. 
He no longer remembers it. 

Why am I hanging onto it?
Why am I living condemned?

It's time to live forgiven
It's time to live free

What about me

Love unconditional
Acceptance 
Understanding 

Looking for it in places it can't be found
Only offered with conditions
Expectations 
Theirs not mine

Fit the mold
Do what they think is right

Don't even try to understand my reasons
my whys 

Still being broken 
Still being wounded 

Ones I'm supposed to trust
To count on
Can't be

Don't I even matter
My hurts
My heart
My mind

Move on

faith?

faith
trust
believe 

i do
i don't 

i want to

help my unbelief 
words earnestly spoken
heart's cry

help me trust You
help me have faith in You
help me to believe You

i want to
more than anything

want to trust You
with my life
with my heart
with my deepest desires

help my unbelief

The shadow

Divorce creates an emptiness... A void

There was someone there
Then there is not. 

Trying to find someone to fill the void. Who will fit? 
I try one or the other. 
No. 
No.

Try to ignore it. 
Try to pretty it up with things, friends.

Doesn't change it. 
Still an empty place. 
Like a shadow. 
Following me around. 
Never letting me forget. 

Alone. 
Empty.

Once Again

Once Again
          I tried to fill the empty space with something else.

Once Again
          I didn't look to You

Once Again
          I have tears and sadness

Once Again
          I see my need for You

Once Again
           I cry out for You to fill me

Once Again
           You remind me of Your Presence

Once Again
          You remind me of Your Love

Once Again
          You are there

Here we are.... Once Again
