"It's like you're deaf to my voice,
but I've been here for every moment, waiting on your call to move.
If you could just make a choice, I know you would find me wanting only to be close to you.
You keep denying my lead!
Because I've tried, I've never pulled back my reach, and I've stayed and I've died, but you keep looking for me where I'm not.
I won't be just where you want me to be.
You've got to believe and just trust that I can be everything.
If you would just try and let me pry all your grips on worries,
I would come alive in your life and let you find the flight you're longing."

Midnight thought.

I swear I have insomnia...but lying in my bed trying to get to sleep as usual, I realised that this world is going to try and break me and conform me (Romans 12.2) but I have to stay true to myself and God. I may not feel good enough, but God gave me this body, this personality, this heart & mind for a reason. I, as a whole being, am made for something worthwhile and beautiful. Why should I waste who God made me to be on pointless things, junk? God has called me to a higher living, a life changed inwardly by God, a pure holy living. And its not easy to do as it is to say.
Gosh no.
I guess I'm struggling a bit with grasping this concept and putting it into action in my life.

The best part


...And the best part is,
I see all your flaws, your corruption, your failures, your past, your hurts, your unfaithfulness, your wordly desires and natures, your longing for sin, your weaknesses, your unloving self, your ungraceful self, your bad hair days and bad skin days, your sick days, your hungover days. I see all your anguish and stubborness, your foolishness, your pride, your selfishness and greed, your hate, your deepest innermost thoughts, and your unspeakable secrets.

I see it all.

And the best part is, despite it all,
I love you and want you and desire you. You are mine. You are beautiful to me. I died so you wouldn't die. Don't underestimate my love. I love you. I truly do.
