Lord, Without You… I Couldn’t Survive!

IMG_0918

Lord if you ever left my side, I wouldn’t make it.

I certainly couldn’t survive.

You are my rock…

My Fortress…

My Comforter…

My Savior…

 

Lord, You never abandoned me…

When others fled… you remained…

Lord, You have always remained faithful.

 

You love me with my limp… the leftovers from an abusive childhood.

My little girl limp never scared you away…

My childhood defense mechanisms…

Never scared you away.

My tears…

My failures…

My emotional outbursts…

Never scared you away!

 

Lord, Despite my brokenness..

My Sinful heart…

My failures…

My mistakes…

You stayed… Always remained.

 

You always walked by my side.

Always encouraged my weary spirit.

You looked beyond the outside…

You saw my heart…

 

You saw beauty before I saw beauty.

You saw beauty when the world saw only brokenness.

You saw who I would be…

In time… one day… who I would become.

 

The little girl deep within…

The wounded little girl…

You’ve never forgotten her!

You continue to walk with her…

Throughout the healing process into her woman years!

You never left her side.

You never will leave her side.

You desire to see her heart restored!

 

Lord, I know you will never leave me,

Behind my self-made protective wall.

The wall this world has forced me to build.

Lord, You desire to be that protective wall…

To shield me from pain.

 

Without you Lord, I would be lost.

Without hope…

Without peace…

Without joy…

 

With you Lord, I am an overcomer.

With you Lord,  I’m discovering true healing.

With you I have hope of a future.

With you…

I can!

“Live Victoriously Under the Umbrella of your love!”
