Daily Prompt: Coincidence

mywords2228

The moment I met you felt like fate

for everything I could possibly want or need just fell into place.

There are moments of struggle but as I work through it, it always works out in the end

Your voice, your comfort it gives me strength in times when I feel like things can’t get any better.

I have you to fall back on but I know your someone who will be around when the times are good as they are bad.

You are my beginning and my ending and my fate with you is worth more than anything this world could offer me.

Daily Prompt: Dignify

mywords2228

She walks with so much grace as those who don’t know her watch and judge her

like it’s a game.

She does everything with an honor of doing it for her Lord, for she could judge too and be all that everyone else is.

Or she could be different and step out on what others think makes you worth of their time.

She feels she is worth for she was giving a certain path to live on and she knows that maybe what she does is not what people think she was meant to do.

But, it is a path she is on and for that she is grateful for, for the past was not all good and the future is a mystery in certain areas.

But, she is happy to know she is worth for the breath she breathes everyday and all the things she does to make someone else day good when all she wants to do is have a day without much stress.

Daily Prompt: Survive

mywords2228

I just want to survive the days and years that seem to hard.

But, I don’t want to survive them just to make it by each day with no life lesson learned.

I want to feel every emotion and live in every moment.

Even when those moments aren’t so great and I just want them to get better.

And they will only in time, so I have to keep surviving to see what more this life can offer me.

I will survive for me and walk slowly through the journey I am on.

For I don’t want to miss seeing the wonders before me.

For when it is time for me to go I want to feel like I conquered more than just a few things.

I want to look back and say I survived it all and God was on that walk with me and without him my chances were slim.

With Laura its been a long time since I did this but I’m excited to do this prompt

 

surrender

Photos By: Laura

I surrender to the unknown for I don’t want to keep looking over my shoulder out of fear that it’s all going to go down hill soon.

I want to embrace my fears and take risks with a smile on my face and I don’t want to stop living life to it’s fullest because tomorrow may not be promised to me.

I won’t let anything hold me back and so each day I’m leaving it all on the floor for if I dont surrender myself to it all today what if tomorrow doesn’t come and I don’t want to ever regret not telling you the truth.

So accept what I have to say for at the end of the day things could end great or they could just end.

I want to know that I surrendered it all and left it all behind as I follow God to a higher place.

I want to know that I wrote my heart out and that every word that came out of my mind was received and helped in ways that are known and unknown to me.

Daily Prompt: Climbing

mywords2228

I’m climbing to the top and every now and then

I stumble and fall a couple of steps.

But, instead of giving up I keep going

and sometimes it feels like someone else is carrying me through it all.

Today I feel like I’ve finally reached the top and there you are with a helping hand

to pull me up to my final destination.

The hands and feet that kept me from getting this far is gone and I am so alive right now

that I can’t hold a grudge against them or be mad at all.

All I can do is smile and laugh and cry happy tears at this moment that feels so unreal right now.

So much I have gone through and at times I have let the negativity get to me and drag me down so far.

I thought and felt there was no coming back from this but, some how and some way I made it to the top.

So would think I just had a good day and my luck was up.

But, I know the truth for the hand that reached out to me that day was my lord and the hands and feet that grabbed and kicked at me was my enemies.

They couldn’t see what I saw waiting for me at the top so they did all they could to tear me down.

Yet, I climbed on with more determined than I could build up myself.

For I had to get to the top and I couldn’t just sit down here and wish one day I had the guts to do it.

I had to act now and climb with all my might and not look down or back for one foot and hand at time.

Would get me to where I’m meant to be and I can say now and later that the climb was so worth it.

There’s

mywords2228

something inside of me that is awakening this morning and it feels so right and it feels like home.

I’m on my way to seeing the bigger picture of who I’m suppose to be, I’ve thrown away all the things that made me doubt myself and made me crawl into the hole of darkness.

The darkness that seemed to control my life for so long that I couldn’t see the people who care for me.

But, that darkness doesn’t exist in my present as the light out shines everyone who doesn’t know the real me.

You see I used to be so broken that the pieces that were there won’t enough to keep me going and, as I fought to keep up this wall that kept the real me hidden.

It was failing so bad that pretending wasn’t option for me anymore and I had to act quick or I would be seen as weak and not in the right mind.

So I fought with all my might and I realized my worth didn’t depend on where I wasn’t in my life and what I wasn’t doing.

So yea I’m not doing what they say I should be but, I don’t care because I’ve never been in such a better place in my life.

There’s something awakening inside of me right now and I won’t trade it in for what you may be doing in your life.

For my happiness and well-being is more important to me, so back off for my ending will only end in knowing I did what I was supposed to do and if you really cared you support me no matter what.

Daily Prompt:Sated

mywords2228

I’m sated with the chooses I have made in life today.

So many trials I went through just to live now with so much hope, belief and faith.

To let God handle it all and for first time not have a moment of doubt.

It will all work out and if it doesn’t who cares, I’m too strong now to let failure break me down.

I am worthy and successful no matter where I end up.

Today could be my greatest day but only if I accept that the impossible can come true and if I fall.

I can always get up and build myself up again until I’m 100% sure I can do this.

I am sated and I will not turn back for nothing.

How I became content with my life!

mywords2228

There’s nothing more that I would need

For I know I’m content with everything I have.

As I sit here and I close my eyes it all falls away and I’m content with what I have again for I feel your warmth God.

And you tell me to just let go and let you take over and as I let go everything falls into place.

My eyes open and I smile for once I feel like I choose to put my trust in you and believed it would all workout.

My mind is clear and I’m in heaven as my heart is beating to a new tune.

A tune of praise so beautiful it made everything else fade away,  I’m soon swaying to the melody that stole my heart forever.

A feeling of true content in you God for my need always came from you so pure.

Happy Easter Everyone!

mywords2228

You are my strength, my heart, my dreams.

My passion, because of you I am me.

A blessing, an hope, someone’s child, your child.

Who are you?

You are my Lord, you gave up your son so I

Can be free, to be forgiven of my sins and to be able to have a relationship with you.

So that I can have someone to turn to

When my days seem so dark and my hope is low.

To be able to find myself in this big world.

I am grateful and I am honored to celebrate this day because of you.
