Unreserved favor and grace is my daily potion from my father in heaven
Everyday I wake up with a smile and though sometimes I get weary the darkness is no longer my friend ..his hand reached through the mist , reached down into the dark and dreary pit and lifted me,
He wiped my tears , cleaned my wounds ' drowned my shame fought my wars ..i emerged victorious and refreshed
because I am a child of grace I can show grace
Because I have found true love I can truly love
no longer am I defined by the world
the one who gave his life wiped my slate clean
And everyday he takes my hand and walks with me..
I will sing of his love forever amazing grace how sweet the sound , that saved a wretch like me ! ;D

Thank you
Thank you for loving me for choosing to see beyond my faults and instead believing in my possibilities.. For showing me grace though I've failed you , for bringing out the beauty from my ugly scars, a past that I hated, the people I loathed.. You graced me so now I grace them , the tears they caused the disappointment it brought , who knew that it would result into a staircase that would bring me closer to heaven..to see me as you see me, to love me as you love me, to forgive them like you forgive me.. I thank them I thank you.

To walk again
Its been a while since I wrote anything , for some reason my thoughts and emotions have been in combat with each other . I couldn't find a way to jot them down
I can't believe I'm going to say this but I've been fortunate to have had surgery twice since 2008 Every time this happens I realize God is trying to get my attention ..asking me to slow down take a minute meditate re-evaluate ..i try so hard to stay on his path but its hard and I know I've strayed many times this year..but through his grace he always gives me another chance to get it right. Now as I'm gearing up for the last one I'm excited to see what new beginnings he has for me..its a chance to say good bye to the old and begin anew ,they are taking out an object that has been part of me for a long time, and with its departure comes a whole new me.. saying good bye to all the trash from my past, the pain the negativity ,the fears those trials have Truly made me stronger , I bear my scars with pride for because of HIM I have survived so much ..and when I finally put down those crutches for the very last time I will be able to stand , I will be healed I will walk again .
and to my friends and family who have taken time to pray with me and encourage me I'm indebted to you .thank you u for loving me ! God bless y'all .

How to survive a break up
1. Cry
2. Talk to your friends don't stink up the carpet by shoving your baggage under it, by allowing yourself to be vulnerable with others you will find healing .
3. Pray
4. Do something that makes you happy listen to music, try new foods, watch a new movie there's so much to do
5.Laugh , hard.
6. Road tripppppppp ! Visit a new place that you've never been to
7. Cry some more..
8.Give yourself room to process all the emotions they are valid and should be expressed.
9. Rebounds are a no-no that just adds more baggage and stinks up the carpet :)
10. Don't allow yourself to be jaded.. Love still remains.there's hope.

I See
I'm standing at the edge of a cliff with a birds eye view of my life.. all of it strewn across the horizon
I see my childhood the moments I like to remember the others Id like to forget
I see myself getting older my naivety getting chipped away by the journey of life I see the ones I've loved
the ones who left,
I see the ones Ive hurt the tears I've caused
The friends I've lost the few who've stayed
So many tears so many smiles
The boys the men,
the girls the women
The darkness the light
New beginnings that led to the end
And beginnings that are now my journey to my last breath
Will I stand, will I fall
that I cannot see for I know not what tomorrow will bring
And that is why I continue to trust in the King.

I shine
its beyond comprehension
The reason I smile
Even when its raining
And the storm is pounding outside
broken hearted and bruised
I still shine, a light bursting out from beyond the clouds
A radiance whose source is infinite immortal eternal
A strength that goes beyond logic
A joy that knows no bounds
even through my tears I still shine
A tranquility in the midst of turmoil I shine
its his grace ,it shines on me
that's what you see when you look at me .

So what ?
So what if I got it wrong..
It will only make me strong
No more tears no more fears I'm finally beginning to feel alive again, no more pain,
Its amazing how many second chances we get ,just when you are ready to give up and resign yourself to a desolate fate , there is a flicker of hope that fills the gaping wound in your heart
there's joy pouring down and a smile on your face
There is a friend to walk beside you and around you
its not the end its the beginning an endless horizon of possibilities ,
Let the adventure begin
Dust off your shoes , its time to walk again.
