September 16th
This is not the beginning. It is not the end. This is a step in the right direction!
Debut Day
A moment that set the stage for big dreams coming true on a big stage. A day many strive for and fall short of the mark. A beautiful day. An invigorating, impossible, exhiliarating joyful day.
Pour My Heart Out
I was praised for someone they wanted me to be.
I would bleed and bleed and they wouldn’t see
The real me, who I’m supposed to be.
Can’t you see? That I pour my heart out
for the scars you can’t see?
Oh, but believe me. I thank God for the God that knows me and sees me and believes in me.
Even now that I’m better now.
Who knows how He can love me now
After all I did and didn’t do.
This God who won’t let me down
Who holds me now. How do I deserve this?
I don’t. Jesus paid the price. With His life.
So He can see me now… wow!
*** I poured my heart out. He sacrificed His Life.
So instead of sleeping in this pain, I’m wide awake
With fire in my eyes. My prize: my soul to take,
But do not forsake what I say: Jesus is the King in my life, in my eyes.
And every time I pour my heart out,
Jesus stands for me for my first steps to take
After the pain from my heart that aches
And aches and He takes the pain away.
This time - for a brighter day.
Do you see what I say?
It’s not about what they say or do or didn’t do.
There’s a King who is coming for YOU!
In your pain. With your heart poured out.
There’s nothing you can do for Him to doubt.
When He looks into your eyes, He sees His prize.
I cry, “Jesus, Jesus, my soul to take! I do not deserve this day…”
He takes your pain away and puts His hands over your heart.
The same hands on that dark day were scarred.
He says, “Do you see it now? I have redeemed you
“I free you… from the scars of your heart.
“Through My hands, I hold you so you can stand
“To see the brighter day.”
And now on this day, I give praise to someone who wants me. The One who loves me. Thank God for Brighter Days!
