A glorious recollection

I was just going back through some of my old writings, and I got really encouraged. I've posted a few of them down below so you could see if you wanted to see what I'm referring to. Basically, the reason I'm so encouraged is because the things that I was struggling with when I wrote these things have been resolved. In some cases, it took years to work through some of them, but now, I look back and am amazed at how far I've come! God is just so good! He's so faithful, and I love being able to trust in Him! Even when things didn't make sense, He made sense out of things and brought them around for the good. It also really encourages me for the present, because I know that I can trust God with things I'm dealing with now. He's always faithful, and I know that as I continue to pursue His will and purpose in ALL things, He will continually bring good out of them. It's an awesome feeling, being able to truly rely on someone and know that they will NEVER let you down!


"save me"
it happens

that is what they say

but it still matters

and it hurts


because it makes me hate you

but i don't want to

and i don't know how

to fix this


and i keep

falling apart

crumbling inside

and trying to cover it up


but then it happens again
and i can't ignore
the pain you cause

and i hate you more


God, please

help me come back

to where i'm found

in you


because i'm falling
and sinking
deeper and deeper

so save me, please



"it's over"

it's been two years
and i finally see

that you weren't all

i thought you to be


i thought i would never

be okay again

but now i'm here

and i'm over it


and i'm over you

and i'm over everything

i thought i knew

yes, it's finally true


and it feels good

not knowing anymore

what i want because

it means that i'm free


free to dream

and hope

and be

someone who is me


and though you never knew

i felt this way

it feels good

just the same



"the blowing wind..."

Do you hear me?

I'm crying out tonight

I want to be real

I want to be true

I want to be everything I'm supposed to


But the walls around me

Keep growing higher

With every fake smile

With every hidden tear

I'm becoming stuck here


How can this be?

What happened to the dreams I could once see?

They're gone with the wind

The wind that keeps blowing me

Blowing me away from who I'm supposed to be

  1. Dear Bekah love,

    Reading what you wrote bring some memories back to myself, which used to hurt me a lot. But now, finding strength in Him, I am able to live freely again. Free from the hatred and anger that used to control me so much last time.

    I am grateful that we can always rely on Him. Everything. As long as we let ourselves open to let Him in, He can always help us to fix the problems.

    He is indeed faithful =)

    Love u!!!!
    Amy
