Five Minute Friday} Broken

Broken is that ache you feel deep within your heart.
Broken is the lump in your throat.
Broken is the fierce anger you feel toward the One you know deep down inside,
 is the very One you should turn to.
Broken is not knowing Why.
Broken is the feeling that you have sunk,
 and for the life of you- 
you can't get out.
And you really can't get out---
 not alone anyway.
You will need friends to listen, friends to be there and weep along side you.
Those friends are fabulous,
 but what about when they can't be there.?.. 
and you feel all alone.
You need to turn to the very ONE you are angry at-
 because He will understand.
You may feel so broken that you feel you hate Him...
he understands that too.
There are no words that any human could possibally say to heal your pain,
but the one you feel caused this pain is your very source of healing.
We don't understand this life of ours, but God does.  
Cry out- be honest- tell Him how you feel...
and don't stop!  You are mad at Him- tell Him that too!
There will come a day when you will see He's always held you, right where you are.
There will come a day when you will see you can trust Him with every hurt in your being. 
The day you just fall to your knees in tears asking why, 
The day you will feel His presence give you the very air you need to breath again.

Five Minute Friday} "Belong"

My sweet child

You belong where God has placed you.

You belong right where you are.

In the difficult times- 

you belong there-

He's gonna show you something.

There will be tears, there will be anger...

Oh it's gonna be hard, 

but knowing you belong right where you've been planted will make your burden easier to bear.

It will take time.

There is beauty in belonging,

that only His eyes can see...

He will hold you there

Trust Him to be your light, when you feel you don't belong here in this broken moment...

Let Him lead you to a place- 

where you know -

You... 

belong to Him.
