Time of need

February 23, 2015

Do you know what it feels like to be told that you are worthless, nothing , a failure.                                                                                                            

It slithers around you from head to toe and holds tight, making you not able to do anything right.        

The frustration spews from your pores in waves and the anger lashes like sharp blades.

That's because you've let them win. You let those cowards and their demonstrative woods seep in.                                                                                                            

Find the strength to rise up and shed that nasty skin, calling on God from deep within.                                                                                                          

Use the the grace he gives you to scale that 10 ft hole, and grab his outstretched hand and take hold.                                                                                                              

The poison that festered will be like seeds on rocky soil, too shallow to take root so they become withered spoils.                                                                                    

They will be scotched by the heat of the gentle hand, who will be your guiding force through this land.          

He' slay your demons and make your enemies bow because he has a plan that you'll see now.

With eyes wide open you your first step, knowing  all he asks for is love ,faith , hope and  he'll do the rest.                                                                                                        

It doesn't matter how long it takes, as long as you try, he will make a way.
