Psalm 51

ahh 2018 :) Hi. I welcome you with open arms. My heart is open and ready for the best year. I believe that the word of the Lord is sure. There is a reward for faithfulness. I rewrote this Psalm for those who are struggling to stay consistent like me. Those who are frustrated with the responsibility of great gifts. Even those who know greatness is inside of them, but they are too afraid to birth it out. I am praying for you. Don't give up!

P.S. I'm back! Its been 2 years and I am finally back. I have a lot of growth, mistakes, tears, and joy to share. If you are here reading this, thanks for keeping me accountable to the gift inside of me. I have wonderful news coming really soon. But until then, enjoy!

Psalm 51*

Have mercy on me Lord,
according to your faithful character,
according to the multitude of love
expressed on the cross.

Wash me in your word,
clean me from my wrongs.

For I confess my sins and I
lay my wrongs on the altar.

Against you alone have I wronged,
and done evil in your sight. You
would be justified in sentencing
me.

Behold, I was created in iniquity;
and in sin I was conceived.

Yet you desire truth from the depths
of my soul and in my hidden parts
you grace me with wisdom.

Purify me with truth and I shall be
free. Wash me and I shall be
clean.

Make me to hear peace and joy;
that even my broken places
shall rejoice.

Hide my face from my sins, and
blot out all my iniquities.

Create in me a clean heart, O God;
and renew a right spirit within me.

Refuse me not from your presence.
Let me keep my promised Holy
Spirit.

Restore unto me the joy of
salvation; uphold me with
a free spirit.

Then will I teach unbelievers
your ways and guide them to
your Marvelous Kingdom.

Deliver me from small thinking,
oh God. Upgrade my mind.

Open up my lips and I will declare
that Jesus is Lord.

For my sacrifice no longer makes us even.
You no longer take joy in my offering.

The sacrifices of God are a broken
spirit: a broken and remorseful heart,
You will not despise.

Do good in your good pleasure unto
Zion: build up the walls of
Jerusalem.

Then You will be pleased with
the sacrifices of righteousness, with
burnt offering and whole burnt
offering: then I will make sacrifices
upon my altar.

*While some of the original text was kept, most of it was modified.
This was not created nor was it intended to replace the word of God*

Knock You Down

"Love (human affection) has put me through so much. Ive cried held on let go let God. Stayed. Thought about leaving. Threw in the towel went to go wash it. Prayed and fasted. Stopped moving moved too fast. Sometimes I need a break from love." - Shanithia That one little mini paragraph is exactly how I feel right about now. I'm sitting here trying to figure out how else to explain it but that's it. On more than one occasion a couple different people have told me I need to let these relationships go and be by myself for a while. I need to enjoy the world around me cause once I get married I'm going to wish I had enjoyed life a little more. I always laughed about. I'm still laughing about that actually. I enjoy my life most days. Cant say all days cause these past four days have been....lets just say I've had way way way way better days. I don't feel as if the world has anything for me except foolishness and more trouble than I'm already promised. And...

Embrace Me

"Chest to chest. Nose to nose. Palm to palm. We were just that close. Wrist to wrist. Toe to toe.....So how come when I reach out my finger it feels like more than distance between us." - California King Bed: Rihanna Chest to chest The simplest of friendships start with the warmness of a hug. The closest that two hearts can be and still beat. Love has a language of its own. One you can only become fluent in through a relationship with Christ. But hugs are different. The embrace of open arms that only close when you come inside caused my first accident. I smashed into you and became paralyzed from the waist down. You picked me up vowing to never let me fall. Palm to palm We never interlocked fingers. We simply held hands. Conversations overlapping future speeches. Wisdom flying at the speed of light with no cops to pull us over. Hand shakes quickly turned into high fives as the intimacy reduced to seconds. Never hungry enough to eat the entire plate. From refrigerator to trash...

Next Stop: Construction Zone

To fall flat on your face is to release who you use to be. To get back up is to become who you are. - HyQuality Between Romans 8: 28 and Galatians 6: 7 I have been building my understanding of everything that has happened. The people that have left. The relationships that have failed. The words I wish I had kept to myself. I have released the claims they had on my identity, demoting them to tools in the Potter's hands. He has kept me because I asked and yield. The blessing is not in a thing. But in the language attached to my name. Either He will reign forever or it will rain forever but I will not put my faith in both. I thank God for the place I am in. The breaking means more room for Him. A part of rebuilding is realizing that I lacked nothing from the beginning. Greater is He that is in me and in Him is all I need. This is not to starting over. This is to making better. Construction Zones There are two things the calm signifies. One is the peace of a new morning the othe...
