I arrived.

I arrived.

I don’t know when it happened, I just realized I was here. The place I had lost sight of and felt was never near. A place of contentment and wellbeing inside. A place that myself could rest and abide. The journey not easy, not like I thought it would be. Steep mountain climbs to the truth, made me question all that was me. I doubted God’s motives and wanted to hide from the past that loomed up and engulfed like…

In My Mind.

In My Mind.

In my mind and far away, I escape myself and avoid this day. Disconnected and shut down, oh God I really do want to drown. I dream of places where I’m not me, where my life could be easy and I can just be. Avoiding life and how I feel, the feelings deep down that I repeal.

Emboldened and strong,…

Far Away

Far Away

Fears

Fears

Fear of feelings from those wicked dealings control thoughts and keep minds reeling. Childhood trauma pushing out impacting the body with such clout. Sudden chills and stabbing pains make no sense and feel insane. Night time terrors waking up Oh God! I don’t want to drink this cup. Intrusive thoughts to end it now plotting and planning on just how. Help me, Jesus, I do want to live Help me out of this crazy sieve. By Barbara Lepson.
