Chaos

the time being

It’s like learning a new language.

One that sticks to the roof of my mouth

and feels like sandpaper to the tongue.

    This is with apologies to the other people who posted. Your loving comments started a thought process..

    Never Truly Alone

    great grief and gulping sobs
    sick dread and fear
    deep and deeper waters
    All Alone

    daytime watching, nighttime
    dreading
    black and blacker darkness
    anxious frozen panicked
    All Alone

    BUT

    Unknown to me in every moment
    Faithful friends are calling angels
    On their knees in intercession
    “Frequently
    Randomly
    Purposefully
    Praying”

    And in a miracle of blessing
    God calls others to my need
    Sends me necessary “manna”
    “Prayers of a
    Stranger
    Passing
    Through”

    My heart is breaking for you and my prayers are filled with pleas for God to intercede. I pray that the Lord will wrap you in the comfort of His arms and cover you with the light of His infinite love. May He give you courage and strength as you walk this road and calm your fears.
    I will continue to pray for you and your beautiful children.

    Praying daily for no peace or joy or happiness for the one who has stolen your joy and your beautiful smile and broken the hearts of your children.

    Praying the unspoken words filled with hope and faith and joy and peace that all pass our every understanding. Praying that His comfort surround with warmth and softness, a blanket covering all, absorbing tears and fears and giving rise to strength and courage as the dawn of each new day breaks forth. Praying that you breathe His breath. In Jesus’ Name.

    Oh,myGod!Haveyouforsakenme?
    I cry in the day and the night.
    My strength is dried up.
    My tongue cleaves to my jaws.

    Be not far from me.
    Hasten to help me.
    Deliver my soul.
    Save me.
    (andthen)
    The Lord is my shepherd.
    He makes.
    He leads.
    He restores.
    He comforts.
    He prepares.
    He anoints.

    Praying. Still praying.
