When cHaOs AiMs To ReIgN sUpReMe

CaNnOns FiRiNg FrOm A trampoline 

Visions BlUrRy in My hEad

AfflicTiOns dripping Down in red


NO escape, No way Out to find

When darkness overtakes the mind


Until, and only when it's time

Does reason and peace come back to mind

 

The only sure and true way to be free

To escape what is haunting me - 

Cry out to God

He is right there

all it takes is a simple, tiny prayer -

"GOD HELP ME!

GET ME OUT SOMEHOW!!"

 

And He is Right There, Right Here, Right Now 

 

Peace comes in and takes a seat

Jesus is near, within your heartbeat

 

He is simply waiting for your call

Jesus saves, rescues, restores

He cares for ALL

 

He knows just what you need the most

He will be there,

He is very close 


NOTHING MAKES SENSE in this broken world,

But He takes DIRT

and turns it into PEARLS.


I don't know where you are right now

If you are like me, life has broken you down

The only thing, the only One 

Who is always there 

is God's own Son.

He left His home, His throne,

To be with us;

The Prince of Peace, the baby Jesus.


It's SO MUCH more than just a bedside tale,

He takes the sick and makes them well.

Not always like you or I can see, 

But ALWAYS heals just what we need.

Today and Every Day

Sometimes I am ok. Other days, I attempt making coffee in my CD player... Just trying to counteract my fog-filled choices. That is a daily battle.  You've probably heard of grief fog. There is pain fog as well. It gets really messy - WHEN GRIEF AND PAIN COLLIDE. How to get anything done when I must save my energy  to work around weather flares,   be able to participate in social outings,   and constantly regroup from yet another trigger?  Just when I feel good enough  to accomplish anything of considerable value,        I cram my energies into that small window of time.  Then pay-back begins, for every crime my body chose to commit against itself. The recovery is always longer than the event.  "Oh, you wanted to get groceries today?"  The cost for that will be: 12) Muscles knotting 11) Joints crying 10) Bones a creaking 9) Back a bending 8) Feet a twisting 7) Skin a crawling ...

Peter Pan

I don't know about any of you - but sometimes life feels like a movie scene.  The one where you are grabbing for the swinging ladder and as you finally grasp the rungs... struggling to climb on... all of them give way and you go tumbling into space......   So this blog is not from Tinkerbell's point of view,  Not just a sprinkle of fairy dust and Happy Thoughts.  It's more like from a blind beggar wanting to show another blind beggar where to find bread.    ↝ Stories from the journey of my life  ↜ written by: Sue Leerhoff   ↝ follow me on my Facebook page ↜ - Brick by Brick
