Words…

 

Word’s are weird.

They are a used in language to express oneself.

To communicate.

Whether it be emotions,

Romance,

Existence…

They describe what one is feeling…

Happy

Mad

Angry

Sad

They tell stories

They tell lies

They tell secrets

Words…

Convo with God:

 

God: Christy how was your day?

 

Me: it was ok, much better than yesterday. I’m starting to feel that tummy ache, yucky nervousness again. Why can’t I not feel nervous? Why does my tummy have to hurt?

 

God: do you trust ME?

 

Me: I want to…

 

God: but do you? I could give you My PEACE that passes all understanding. I could give you sweet rest.

 

Me: why is it soooo hard to trust? Why can’t I simply let go and RELEASE it into Your hands? Why do I have to try to hold on sooo tightly?

 

God: I made you and I have designed your personality to want control. To want order. And when things don’t go according to plan it stresses you out. Because of this you need to work a little harder to let go. You are trying to hold onto the control, the order, the having to know what comes next. I AM a God who is creative, loves to think outside the box, loves to let His creation create… you, Christy, have a gift- a creativeness given to you by Me. When you are able to step outside yourself and reach out to others they begin to get a tiny glimpse of who I AM.

 

Me: God I want others to see You through me but I’m scared with this overwhelming anxiety and depression. I don’t know how to move beyond the disorder and I let it get the best of me. In fact I begin to let it identify me. God I want to be a light for You. I’m failing in my own strength, so please let Your strength takeover.
