You know it is so strange to me, how God knows when I truly just can't take anymore lol. Here is the poem I wrote at CR this week and then refined during church today.
Riding the Merry-Go-Round
Broken dreams and hollow goals,
Hearts of stone and shattered souls.
Days that drift through empty years,
Lost on an ocean of endless tears.
Silent cries inside my head
Facing the future in sinking dread.
I stand alone in the same old place
What hope can live in rejection's face?
Unwanted, unloved, and tossed to the side
Praying for only an end to the ride.
Then, tonight, when I cried out to God. Not 5 minutes later, a friend that I thought no longer wanted me in their life called to say hi. The difference one phone call can make. Nothing else changes, but knowing that your friendship is valued and wanted can make all the difference in the world. And tonight, God sent me comfort, in the voice of a friend. And yeah, the saddness is still there, but right now, it has no power and I am content, even in the darkness.

He said that He's good when you are and that He likes long walks on the beach. Apparently, that "Footprints" poem was HIS idea.
