"Did any of you, parents, ever hear your child wake from sleep with some panic fear and shriek the mother’s name through the darkness? Was not that a more powerful appeal than all words? And, depend upon it, that the soul which cries aloud on God, “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,” though it have “no language but a cry,” will never call in vain."
- Alexander MacLaren

I wish I could wake up one day and be happy. Truly happy. I don't want to be this shell of a person anymore.

If I had a nickel for every time a huge ass lizard fell on me, I'd have 2 nickels which isn't a lot but it's strange that it has happened twice already 😭

I pour my love out like a river wide,
Flowing freely with an unrelenting tide,
But in return, I find a barren shore,
Where no love grows, and nothing more.
I give and give, but never seem to receive,
My heart aching with a pain hard to relieve,
For though I pour out all that I hold dear,
No love comes back, and that is what I fear.
I wonder why my love is not enough,
Why the one I love cannot feel my touch,
And though I try to bridge the gap between us,
I find my efforts are met with little fuss.
It's hard to keep on giving without end,
When it seems that nothing will ever bend,
And though I know love should be freely given,
It's hard to keep the faith when it's not reciprocated, even for a moment.
But still I give, and still I hope,
That someday love will find a way to cope,
And though it hurts to not receive in kind,
I know that giving love is never a waste of time.
So I'll keep on giving, and keep on trying,
Hoping that someday my love will be flying,
And though it hurts to not receive the same,
I'll keep on giving, for love is not a game.
Yours Truly🌻

Justice for His Elect
Now, will God not bring about justice for His elect who cry to Him day and night, and will He delay long over them?
