Memories
I just spent the last 3 hours reading all of my journal entries from the beginning (Dec 2002) until around the time I let Jesus into my life (June 2004).
Totally humbling and shocking. I wanted to repost this poem I wrote. When I wrote it I think I was writing about a boy I thought I was in love with. I read it now and know that who I needed was Jesus all along.
I sit here in Limbo
but not between life and death
I sit between past and future
waiting to take the next step
My spirit so longs to travel forward
My legs strain to pull me along
My mind says give up and go
but my heart won't let me move on
"Just a little bit longer..." I pray
Until I can start on my path
Because I don't won't go on uncompleted
I am waiting for my other half
Because I see two ways I can travel
and one of them is all alone
that trail leads to tears and darkness
the other leads straight to home
And by home I mean the anecdote
it's "where the heart is" with you and I
So I will stay just a little bit longer
and let my heart lead my mind for a try
That poem perfectly describes where I was before I met Christ.
Lord, before I fall asleep tonight I just want to thank You, thank You, thank You for how you have changed me, transformed me, healed me. Thank you for showing me how far I have come. I am forever grateful.
I love you! Please keep up the good work, I know I still need more work!
