God, i look up
and all around me
are colors streaked together.
and all they do
is proclaim your majesty.
God, i'm tired.
i'm sorry.
i'm weak.
and i can't always see
how you could ever use me.
God, i need you.
on my own, i can't do it.
i fail at life
without you.
and right now, i need your love.
so thank you, Father.
you have always been a good, good Father.
and i know you will never stop.
you made the world a beautiful place.
and i know you can do that with my life, too.
so thank you.

i guess this has just been my heart cry lately, and it's nice to put it down in words. ♥
so, on other news, i hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and week =) i'm literally so happy right now because i'm on vacation. but that's sometimes the thing with vacation -- i never do anything. yeah well. stay happy.

DeleteAUTUMN, DEAR. Oh goodness. How I know this deep down in the roots of my heart. I am beyond weak. I am so fragile and empty and hopeless and impossible. But our King? OUR KING? Oh my weary little soul, he is the Healer, he is the King, he is the Lord of Lords, he is Possible. And he is transforming us into his ever-increasing glory, darling. His grace and mercy are boundless and full of love. I am so, so thankful. ♥♥ superb post, girlie.
ReplyDeleteOH CALLY. YOU ARE THE BEST. so much <3
Deleteyou wrote it so perfectly, so accurately. you are right. on our own, we are only fragile little souls grappling for a higher meaning, a purpose to our life. but with our omnipotent, all-powerful KING who rules galaxies with His words, we are transformed. His love is truly boundless. thank you, cally ♥
That was so pretty Autumn!

ReplyDeleteautumn ;:_____:; this is so beautiful. the aesthetics of the photographs & the poetry flow together so well!!
ReplyDelete"i guess this has just been my heart cry lately, and it's nice to put it down in words." That is the best feeling ever, isn't it? So satisfying. This poem is beautiful. And true -- this is why God has made us into new creatures, and why we're filled with the spirit of Christ, so that we can shine like him, on earth as it is in Heaven. ♥ Happiness to you, too, Autumn! :)
