Work In Progress

He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6

Pain

I hate when people post their feelings, but I just need to say it.

I hurt. Seriously and Badly. My heart is worn, exhausted, torn, and scarred.

Sorry friends, but this is the best that I have for right now. I could use some prayers.

The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I'm alive
But I feel like I've died

And all that's left is to accept that it's over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I'm slipping away

After all this has passed
I still will remain
After I've cried my last
There'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain

My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I wonder why God let me walk through this place

And though I can't understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how You've brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames

Here and I am at the end of me (at the end of me)
Trying to hold to what I can't see
I forgot how to hope
This night's been so long
I cling to your promise there will be a dawn

Miss, please look for positive things. You have so much to be thankful for. The doctors say that you are ok, you are getting a great college education, you have a great car to drive, you have all the food you need to eat, you have a family that love's you at all levels, the lord is your savior, and you are great card player. As Jack Nicholson says, "try to look on the bright side." If you do that you will see that you WILL feel better. I love you.
TD. :)

 

Oh, Kim. God is faithful and purposeful. I heard this song today, I don't know the name of it, but the chorus is "I have been there, I know what pain is all about." We do not worship a distant, weak, apathetic god. We worship the almight God of the universe, who loves YOU.
He is faithful, even when all we can do is cry "Abba, Father, Daddy, I hurt."
