I am God, I&


I am

 

God,

I’m not sure if you hear me,

I lost everything you once gave to me. I took it and threw it all away. I turned my back on you. I left you for the world as if it offers me something… your blessing I took into my hands and distorted them. For I believe I could change all, as if I were you.  “I will figure it” out became my favorite saying… I can fix it is what I kept telling myself… I, I, I… not thinking of you … My father. My God. You who gave me so much. forgive me... but this pain in my heart overwhelms me… My past hunts me.  And it feels like my family looks down upon me…all I want is to give up, feeling like I’m holding on to something that is impossible for me to live up. Confusion has entered my mind causing me to feel that I have lost your mercy and grace. Searching for an answer yet I hear nothing… Nothing…

Please say something…

Am I still able to come back to you as dirty as I am

Please say something…

Has your love left me for good…?

 Please say something….. 

 

MY CHILD, BE STILL AND LISTEN,

 For I have heard your voice since the first time you cried out from your mother’s womb…

you are mine… for I have claimed you.

 And I will restore everything you lost, I will come and pick up the pieces one by one and put them back together, For I am your Praise!!

Your blessing, no worries I have new ones. Call upon my name and there yours.

 Depend on me…

 Stop trying to do everything on your own….  Remember all things are done through me, for I shall Strengthen “D”… trust me, I Never left you, I have seen all and heard all, and here I stand before you. Depend on me…

 Understand that the confusion does not come from your father. But that the enemy has tried to destroy you so that you will go no further. Come back to me I will never turn you away… let me guide you, love you and protect you. Your past is only a reflection of the enemy trying to mock us, but my promise is a reminder of what the future has for you. I will never leave you and no weapon against you shall ever prosper.  

Depend on me…

MY CHILD, BE STILL AND LISTEN for I am.
