How faith can help you move forward in our lives.

 

I Made It
 
 
 
You were like a light
amidst my fog
when I could not see
you came into my
life
I thought to love me
but…
 
Like a hurricane
you changed
the intensity of your presence
tore through my heart
and ripped my free spirit
to shreds.
 
I tried to stand
but your winds were too strong
you knocked my self respect
upon the ground…
within your powers
I was bound.
 
I fought to be heard
 among the thunderous sound
I scratched the earth
with my face
but…
 
through it all
I found God
he gave me the power
to grasp on …
during the rain
I made it
through the storm…
I made it…

How can anyone not believe in God when all they have to do is look about them?? This is a question/situation we Christians are faced with every day when trying to spread the Good News to people (the lost). If they can't accept, all we can do is pray that someone comes into their lives that can reach their (stopped up) ears, remove the blinders from their eyes/hearts. Very beautiful inspirational verse; brava, Lavander!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

Thank GOD I found Christ!! :D I am NOT perfect, but I AM Forgiven! :)
