The Tears, they will fall


The tears,
they fall.
hard at first,
why would you 
do this O God? 
i don't see, what 
is the gang?

The tears,
they fall,
i can't see
at all,
things are
blurred,
I want to believe
in anything but
the Word.


I only get
up in the
morning,
to lie back
down at
night. 

I think, 'what is the point?' 
it seems like I'm stuck,
it's like I'm out of luck. 

Gradually,
I find 
that the 
Lord has not
forsaken me.
though it may look like it,
i realize,
that He will always be there,
to pull me out of the pit.

Gradually, 
I get better,
I can see the sunshine,
I can smell the flowers
I know that 
God will bring 
me relief,
he will pick me up
in his strong arms,
and he will offer me
the cup, 
of life. 

The tears,
they fall,
but I have not lost!
will not lose!
For my God is greater,
my God is stronger. 
And with Him,
I'll never back down,
I'll never give up.
though they will pound 
me, 
they will not drown 
me, 
For through Christ,
I can do all things. 

I know that He 
will not give me
more then my 
small,
breakable shoulders
can hold.

I will rejoce in God
in the good times,
and I will praise him
in the bad. 

The tears,
they fall.
He will keep me
close,
and give me
a rose, 
to dry my tears 
when they roll
down my cheeks.

But I know,
that I'm not alone.
I'm never alone.
and if my God is for me,
...who can stand against me?

"...For I will never leave you,
nor forsake you." ~ Hebrews 13:5

I'll be myself

God made me,
he carved me,
he showed me who I was,
who I am.
So I'll be who I am,
nothing more,
nothing less.

I won't let people
influence me as
best as I can.
but through the Lord,
I can do all things!
which means I can be myself
around anybody!!

It doesn't matter what they
think of me,
or if they criticize me,
or if they talk about me
behind
my back.
I don't care.
And I won't let it bother me,
for I am a Princess,
I am Royalty,
I am God's daughter,
and that's all that maters.

So let them criticize me!
but their words won't
reach my ears.
their talk will be in
vain,
for I will hear
none of it.
Because God is my Father,
he protects me from
hurt.
Thank you Lord!
for being too good for me!!

Feelings that make me feel

 
I listened to this just today. and it gave me a whole new view on the love Jesus has for me. 
Sometimes it's hard to think that he's there and that he's always going to love us, no matter how ugly we think we are, or how sinful we are, or what bad things we've done. He will ALWAYS love us!!!
it's hard to get isn't it? that's what I thought too. 
but then I read the passage: Jude 1:2
"Mercy, peace, and love be yours in abundance." 
LOVE will be yours in ABUNDANCE!! isn't that amazing?! Like I said before, he will love us...always!

I'm content

"Though it's raining,
I'm smiling.
The skies may be dark,
but I'm happy.
I may be the unluckiest girl,
but I'm content.
Because I can do all things through
Christ
who strengthens me!!"
~ Me!

Christy Miller, and other things ;) (GIRLS ONLY)

Hey guys!
I just finished the most amazing and encouraging book I've picked up in a while! It's called Christy Miller. and actually there's more then one book thank goodness!! if it was only one I would be in tears! :D no joke!
I love Christy! she's a girl that everyone can relate to in one way or another. And her relationship with Todd is such a gift from God (even though it's fiction but that's not my point) I wish I knew someone and we had that kind of relationship.
So it's safe to say I found my model for my future husband. :) he doesn't have to be EXACTLY like Todd, but I want him to be pretty close. Not that I'm going to go looking for someone like that. ha heck no. I'm going to wait in God's arms. Only through God is my husband going to find me. and that's the way I want to keep it.

As any of you heard the song called "Average Girl" by BarlowGirl? well if not, any girls out there should definatly model themselves after BarlowGirl. From the first time I've heard that song, I knew who I wanted to be like. and so far, it's worked out great! God's saved me a few times from having my heart broken, when i got that image of what kind of girl I wanted to be. Even though I slipped once, it didn't end in tears and broken hearts. No, we promised to continue our friendship, as friends. and I'm really greatful that God let things turn out like they did.
I had a friend just ask me today if I had my eye on any guys. ha I laughed so hard that I cried. he didn't understand why of course. So I explained to him that I wasn't looking for one. so no. Right now I just have my eyes on God. He smiled and said "Good answer."
So that right there is another reason why I wear a purity ring. and I'm  really greatful that I have been able to keep my focus on God. :)

So I just felt like giving you guys an update that's all.And I hope that my decisions in my romance life have encouraged you. Your in my Prayers!

Your encouraging and loving friend,
Aline

Note: I'm not suicidal!

Note: I'm not suicidal!!! Yes, i know my last post was about a girl who was suicidal, but last night I had an urge to write a poem about a girl (or guy) who had problems and felt like her voice was silent. but it turns out that it wasn't. And she/he turns out alright in the end.
So i just wanted to explain that!
