A New Direction

Even though she still cares for him, she must accept that it was not meant for a time such as this...

She must dry the tears that have flowed down her face...

And move in whatever direction God leads her, even though that direction is without the one she cares about...

She chooses to remember the good memories of the laughter, his smile, the long talks, walks and the joy she felt during those times...

Even though she loved with an open with heart as never before, it was not meant for a time such as this...

Whispers of the Heart

       Whispers of the Heart

Whispers of the heart can be soft and gentle,

Yet some can make you feel shattered if not returned

Let not your heart be troubled

For if they truly love you they will let you know

Whispers of the heart can dry a tear or cause a tear

Either way it can be a lesson learned

Whispers of the heart will let you learn if their intentions were honest or if you were just a passing thought

Whispers of the heart

Can bring you joy or bring you sadness

You choose which it does

Let not sadness overtake you

Instead let the happinessness of the true whispers of the heart overtake you

Whispers of the heart which are real will be more powerful than those that are not...

We Must Find The Positives Even In All Negatives

When I listen to the birds beautiful singing it makes me think of God and how He has blessed me to wake to see another day and how I know that since He provides even for the sparrows that He will also provide for me and for you. He blessed the birds to be able to sing to bring joy and peace to others. I am excited to see what God has planned in each of our lives to spread His word and to help others. Even though each of our situations are tough right now we can rest assured that God is moving in them even when we can't see that move in the natural. When someone is  without a home it is hard at times, but it isn't the worst thing that can happen to a person, and it can even bring one closer to God in many ways and it can keep you feeling grateful for even the smallest of things in life. People say life is bad, but like I have told many it isn't life that is bad, its just some of the bumps in the road that are bad, but if we hold on we can get over those bumps and they can be as stepping stones to better places in life. I know God will provide all of my needs in His timing as long as I keep doing what I need to as well. He has not left nor forsaken you in your situation nor me in mine and He wants us to continue to trust Him above all else and all others that He will do as He says. His word and promises will not come back void. We need to keep speaking His words back to Him and we need to believe what we speak for the power of death and life are in the tongue and we will eat the fruit thereof. We must keep making positive declarations as to what God is doing and can do and will do in all of our lifes and situations. We must stand upon His word for He is our rock and our High Tower to which we can run to. He has a ministry for each of us and He will fullfil that which He has has started in each of us. We must look to the positive even in every negative situation. No matter what we go through in life it will work for out for our good as long as we keep our eyes and hearts on God. You will come out of your situation and you will be stronger in Christ for it. You will learn and you will grow and you will use it to help others to get through their own situations. All we go through in life are lessons to learn from and can be used to help ourselves and others. Sometimes we are focucing so much on the bad situations in our lives that we aren't seeing the answers God has already given us or is about to give us. I know I have been guilty of that myself at times. We get so frustrated and so loud in our own thoughts sometimes that we can't even hear God over them. He should only have to whisper to us, yet sometimes it seems we leave Him no choice but to yell to get our attention. By yelling I mean allowing situations and time to seem as if they are at a standstill when really they aren't, they are just delayed a little while. No matter what is going on in life God is still in control even when we are selves aren't. We must keep trusting God and believing that He will help us in all things.

I Trust You Lord

I trust you Lord
When my heart is heavy,
When my spirit weeps,
When all seems out of my control, When I am afraid,

When I am rejected,

When I am disrespected, 
When I am replaced,
When I am displaced,
When I am confused, 
When your choices are not mine, 
When I am feeling alone, 
When my burdens are many, 
When I make the wrong choices, 
When all is said and done,
I trust you Lord and should I ever have doubt then please forgive me Lord...

Not For A Time Such As This

She had never felt this way before until she opened her heart to him so complety, even though she knew that her love for him was not for a time such as this; therefore leaving her with the shattered pieces of her heart...

She is trying to accept what she knows is best for both of them, yet the pain is still so fresh and ever present. She misses his laughter, their long talks and walks, and she longs to hear his voice again and to see his smile...

She feels the warm tears flow down her face like a river with no end, yet she must do her best to dry her tears and to remember the happiness she felt each time she spent with him. Oh the joy she felt during those times and yet now Oh the sadness she feels since she can't be in his life as she once was...

She is usually strong, but today she is weak, yet with God's help she will be strong and full of joy again...

She is thankful for the time that she did get with him... 

If only love were enough to break through the barriers that cause division. 

She wants only God's best for him now and always even if God's best is for her not being in his life as before...

God Heal The Broken Pieces

She made the choice to open her heart and allowed herself to love and to trust again only to be realize to late the cost that choice would be. It cost her tears, hurt, mistrust, sadness, a new doubt in herself that she had not felt in many years and so much more. Yet even with all of that she knows with God's help she will heal and that she will move forward and that she must not doubt herself just because of others opinions of her. She will guard her heart as never before; for she allowed herself to love and trust once again this time as never before. She will now dry her tears, lift her head and not look back into her past unless it can help someone somehow. She has asked God to heal the broken pieces of her heart.

Trust God Above All Else

Smile when you feel like crying...
Laugh when you want to scream...
Love when you feel you can't...
Give of yourself even if you have nothing else...
Live life to the fullest...
Trust God above all else.
