"The depth of sorrow has a way of changing the way you share your life"

your heart

your God.

"It makes you want to shout the name of Jesus because you realize that after all, in the very midst of it, He is real."

Sometimes I feel like I will never be out of my valley.

I know He is with me and carrying me each day.

But I sometimes have to try really hard to remember that.

I try so hard everyday to keep going, keep moving, keep living.

Sometimes it seems so hard to keep it up.

How much should you really have to struggle to get through each day?

Every time I feel like I have just a moment of hope, it is taken away.

He has changed me.

"He has used this season to show me an image of myself, kissing His feet while the tears slip to the ground."

It just gets so hard sometimes.

I am feeling very tired today.

I am trying to trust Him and remember that He has not abandoned me.

"If I believe in Him tonight, I will know what it feels like to trust completely in the One who holds me high above the discernible ground."

I will remember that it isn't always perfect, and it isn't always easy.

"It is entirely possible that something will give way and I will fall, head first into the ache that is this life."

"But on the other hand, I'll never know unless I jump."

Easier said then done...

I will remember this...
