Your heart will beat again!

Just 2 days before my birthday in 2016, the man whom I loved decided to tell me he doesn’t love me anymore.

My heart was broken and the days that followed were excruciating. I would wake up and feel empty with no joy to get out of my bed. My hope was gone. I had no motivation to do things I once enjoyed.

And then the Holy Spirit reminded me to pick up the cross and follow Christ. He encouraged me to live again and enjoy the gift of life. He spoke to me through a dear friend in a letter given to me on my birthday. She wrote- "Your heart will beat again!"

I am a hopeful romantic. I believe in two imperfect people pursuing the perfect love of Christ. Yes, I'm still hopeful. The more I learn about God's love for me, the more I'm drawn to Him. I realize that everything in this world is dull in comparison to the selfless love of Christ. He relentlessly pursues my heart with an unceasing love even when I fail Him every day. He faithfully encourages me to live life every day even when I am unfaithful. He is my Best Friend. He is the One who laid down His life for me. Words fall short to describe His amazing love. So I urge you to come to Christ to experience His love for you. I must warn you - He will captivate your heart with His love forever and you will never be the same. He will fill your broken and empty heart with His satisfying love, joy and peace. His love will overflow from you to reach others who are in desperate need of love.

Praying that everything that seems dead within you will come to life. I know your heart will beat again. Encouraging you to live and enjoy the gift of life.

From wander to wonder

  What do you do? When you wander aimlessly  And the fire you once had was quenched You are misunderstood even by your own Rejected and cast away You feel lonely and isolated You  feel  you don't belong or can't connect And deep  inside  you feel empty and spent Tired yet going on from one day to the next  Your past mistakes haunt you  And an enemy that constantly attacks and doesn't back down And a world that constantly tempts you or makes you feel that you are not enough  And your thoughts that should be a friend but act like a foe instead  It haunts you with a past that makes you see the sins and a heart that's scarlet red Meet me "Great I am" in my wandering in this wilderness like you met Moses And transform my I am's Where mundane turns to musing And despair turns to delight  Where wander turns to wonder  Where wilderness turns to worship As you show me a bush burning and yet not consumed  Reminding me you have inter...

In to me, you see!

Before your father and mother conceived You  I conceived you You were with me in my heart, my very imagination and my mind I kissed you with my breath in your mother's womb I sealed you to be mine forever before the foundations of the earth  I marked you with the Spirit  You didn't choose me but I chose you to be mine forever Simply because I made you with love I am the very breath in your lungs  The blood that flows through your veins I have hemmed you and surrounded you within and everywhere with my love You cannot escape my presence I know your wanderings, and I know where you hide My love is present with you in the deepest pit of your despair and disappointment And I will not leave you there But I have raised you from the pit to the power of my faithful and steady love  To proclaim and touch people with compassion and grace As I touch you every day with my love to bring you life My words chiselling your flesh into submission to my loving authority to reflect...

The Design

 I believe that there is a God who is good and He created us with purpose. He loved us so much that He was compelled by love to create children in His image who are good, filled with love and compassion. We were created for love and to go beyond our SELF. I am convinced of this, though I fail daily. When I was younger, someone very dear to me failed in a relationship and my little heart was broken. When I saw the person suffer the consequence I believed that they deserved it. As a kid I was unaware of my self righteousness. Time flew and when I grew up, I failed in a relationship. I was torn with condemnation, guilt, shame and judgement. This time I failed. I just couldn't take the weight of it and made a confession to a friend. I was so disappointed that I didn't see hope. My friend graciously explained that God is merciful. When you truly repent He forgives.  I have always believed in God. As a child I wrote letters to Him mainly out of frustration about my situatio...
