Trust 2.0

Trust
(faith hope)
Grows
In those micro seconds when
We step away from 
Worry 
(anger fear control)
And put our hand in Yours
(instead)

Used to

“As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? My tears have been my food day and night, while people say to me all day long, “Where is your God?” These things I remember as I pour out my soul: how I used to go to the house of God under the protection of the Mighty One with shouts of joy and praise among the festive throng. Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.” Psalm 42: 1-5 (NIV)

I remember how I
Used to
(because)
I was of
 Use to
(and)
Now I am no 
Use to
(and)
The sanctuary is defiled

(and so)

I weep and wait
(and)
Crawl into Your lap Papa
(and)
Trust You and yet wait in
 Sadness Hope and Praise

Stacked

I am sorry to inform you that
The system’s stacked against you
The system's stacked against you and
There's nothing you can do
I am sorry to inform you that
The system’s stacked against you
The system's stacked against you and
There's nothing you can do
I am sorry to inform you that
The system’s stacked against you
The system's stacked against you and
There's nothing you can do
I am sorry to inform you that
The system’s stacked against you
The system's stacked against you and
There's nothing you can do

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Song of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

I Miss

I miss your smile
I miss your smell
I miss the way you set your jaw when you’re thinking hard 
(or mad)

I miss your laugh
I miss your joy
I miss your hair (the way you flick it when you’re feeling sassy and strong)

I miss your faith
I miss your friendship
I miss the way you say my name when you’re annoyed with me (or pleased)

I miss being told what to do

I miss

The essential essence of

(irreplaceable incomparable)  

You

I

Miss
