The Walk
When you are in turmoil up to your neck, He is there.
When you don’t hear His voice, He is listening.
When our prayers are not coming true, He can provide.
If you feel like you’ve scuffed it up in life, He will make beauty out of your mistakes.
We are like an apple. On the outside we look blameless, but on the inside there are worms eating away at our heart, faith and hope. We do our best to smile at each other with all the hurt inside. No body knows how hard this can be. Often we suppress our problems and put on a well rehearsed smile as if we are acting a part in a play.
We can walk around like an inflated balloon full of hurt, ready to explode or we can bring our problems, hurt, bruises, and scars to the one who can forgive and make new. All we must do is ask and keep believing.
We need to remember that God is for us. Not against us. Do not be confused when you’re going through trials and bad seasons. He still loves you.
God makes no mistakes. Each of us has a weakness. You may think your weakness is a burden, but it might be your strength unknown to you at the moment. If you could have Heavens view for your life, you would understand everything is falling into place. Your condition may or never be healed, but it might be used for the glory of God in a way only God could.
A peach has a seed inside of it. When the peach is gone, the seed inside can be planted to make another peach tree. Like the seed inside the peach, our efforts, struggles, and good deeds can be planted in the garden of faith where our fruits of our life can be a blessing to all like a peach tree with much fruit.
God, we come to you with heavy burdens needing of release.
May my deeds not go in vain.
Hold my heart and don’t let go.
You are here to stay in my heart and soul.
Have mercy and grace to hold up my head from these deep, dark, waters.
Let me sing songs of praise through out this life as a chosen child of your family.
Let my life be a light to all people through Jesus who seeks the light of eternity.
When this life of mine is complete and I take my last breath, let me say
“Thank you.”
