I’m tired…..I’m worn……….

DSCN1757I’m Tired I’m worn
My heart is heavy
From the work it takes
To keep on breathing
I’ve made mistakes
I’ve let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed
By the weight of this world

And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left.

These words have been like a breathe of heaven into my soul.  How many times do we doubt God for his ultimate control?  I know I do.  I fail miserably more times than I would like to admit.  I struggle with the Faith that he will take care of me no matter what.

Why is that so hard to believe?  Because believing is seeing and seeing things from God’s view is hard to do when the world comes at you.

I’ve heard so many stories about God’s redemption and what he has done for his people who have been almost completely destroyed by the world. Be reminded that no matter what comes at you today there is ultimate redemption and love for us through Him. .

I’m Tired I’m worn
My heart is heavy
From the work it takes
To keep on breathing
I’ve made mistakes
I’ve let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed
By the weight of this world

And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart
That’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause I’m worn

I know I need to lift my eyes up
But I’m too weak
Life just won’t let up
And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart
That’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause I’m worn

My prayers are wearing thin
Yeah, I’m worn
Even before the day begins
Yeah, I’m worn
I’ve lost my will to fight
I’m worn
So, heaven come and flood my eyes

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart
That’s frail and torn
I wanna know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause all that’s dead inside will be reborn

Though I’m worn
Yeah I’m worn

Grace………..

Wow it has been a few weeks since I have been on here, the Lord dealt swiftly with my  wrong doing and I am thankful that he gives me grace to learn from my mistakes.

I was feeling guilty that I wasn’t doing what I was 1st called to be—a wife.  I was putting all my selfish desires above my husbands and I was in the wrong.

The Lord knows that sometimes I don’t listen so he was able to have my laptop, actually both of our laptops be broken during this time, so that I was in no way going to be able to do my blog no matter what.  Thankfully he is showing me His way, not my own.

I plan to ask the Lord before I “assume” it is what He wants.  Seeking Him in prayer each and every day about how my day should unfold.

I failed………I failed as a wife……I failed as a child of God.

 

but God is so wonderful in his infinite power and wisdom to allow me something called

Grace

Grace for another chance……grace to say its okay we all make mistakes, and grace to say tomorrow is another day.

Let’s learn from this and move on.  Being ready for the next.

“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will
boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

2 Corinthians 12:9
