Author & Finisher

i try moving forward.

It feels like i'm tied to a freight train.

Like i can go no farther.

Am i trying hard enough?

i realize i can't do this by myself.

It hurts each attempted step.

The scars scream with pain every time they are revealed.

One step forwards.

Two steps back.

Everything is lost save what i need the most.

Just enough.

Not too much.

Not too little.

Will they vanish too?

Into the air like the others?

Are they here for eternity?

i shall keep pressing on this track before me until its time to go home.

It is apathy, Lord?

Do i not care for the loved pieces left behind?

You do.

And You took them.

i don't need them.

All i need is You.

"Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
~2 Corinthians 12:8-10~
