i thought i was okay... i thought i everything was fine. until you start to fall again and it hits you hard. just like it always does, just like you always need to fall to rise.
thank you kathy. thank you carlo. i needed this time of prayer to be with God to realize that there are reasons for pain and suffering, that thorns are blessings and hurt is healthy, that sorrow is sacred and sin can be made pure. thank you for reminding me how to cry, how have a good cry and come out of it cleansed and renewed. thank you for allowing me to see Christ in others and for allowing myself to be used for something greater. for allowing me to feel like i've never felt before, for allowing me to sing like i've never sung before, for allowing me to kneel and to beg and to just let my spirit soar. there's nothing like being at peace when you feel there's no peace left in the world. there's nothing like accepting pain and being grateful for pain. there's nothing like thanking God for fear not because fear is good but because fear reminds us of Whom we have to turn back to. thanks for sharing quiet time with me and allowing me to heal, allowing us to heal.
there really is no higher sacrifice than a man who gives His life for me.
and once again, i feel hope... despite all struggles, there's hope.
thanks for making me see again. and breathe.
