Poetry

This book is filled with all the poems my dead soul wrote when I didn't have Jesus. I felt the need to share these because I know what it's like to feel lost and confused. But I also know what forgiveness feels like and I've seen how God can change...

                                              I didn't know how to
I didn't want to...
Grew tired of holding
Felt myself rotting
As King David said,
"My bones burn like a furnace"
I was losing the race
                          I lost sight of your glory
Became blind
Because I wouldn't let go
I let anxiety and depression
Grab a hold of me 
I didn't care, I didn't flee
                          Only by your grace!
Was I able to embrace 
Embrace the sense of life!

                          You gave me strength to let go
Let go of anxiety and depression
I now hold in heart your salvation
"He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness, for his name sake."
