Would It Help?
This forum here- I feel I must excuse, explain it all again- this place is for me. I come here and I scream in the only way I know how. I ask questions that otherwise wouldn’t leave my lips… I fool myself that being here makes it all safe to give a voice.
Dumbo had a feather to help him soar — I have this wee little blog (and additional hang ups that we’ll discuss some other, far off day.)
I probably don’t need this feather, (or those) … but until I am sure, I grasp them tightly in my trunk….
Big Exhale Here.
Would it make a difference, if we listed your sins and excused you from each individually. Is that what you need to happen?
Sex Before Marriage?
Child Out Of Wedlock?
Drunkenness?
Debauchery?
Lewdness?
Lying and Lasciviousness?
Gambling?
Greed?
Lust?
Adultery?
What if there were nothing you could say to make Love go away?
No face too dirty, no act too desperate….
Would bitterness still taunt you? Would you continue to gnash the flesh of all who dare come near you?
It seems to me that no one hates you as much as you hate yourself.
Who are you to hold that against yourself, eh?
What if I told you that there is Someone who loves you even when I must draw the line? Would you want that Love, or do you prefer your state of misery?
You’ve been forgiven despite all that taints your memory, all that haunts your soul… yes, all of it. Would it blow your mind for me to say, you’ve been forgiven for the things you’ve yet to do tomorrow?
Now, if I could only drop this foolish feather, fly up beside you and whisper this in your ear. If only you would hear me and see how beautiful life can be.
Lay down your arms! Cast your burdens all on me….no, no, I mean on Him…
You can- if you would, if you will…
There is nothing to lose besides a crooked crutch- and all the world to gain.
