Beauty from pain...

I sit in the darkness waiting... 

just waiting for Your promises to shine Your light on me.

Because, I've shed too many tears 

& the pieces of my broken heart
have scattered in the wind. 

I can't do this on my own...

Can you hear me?? 

I'm finally ready to let it all go, 

to let You have all control.

Because, When my heart was broken 

You didn't just put a band-aide on it, 

walk away & let it heal on its own;

With the painful scars left for all the world to see.

No. You picked up the pieces of my heart so lovingly...

You put me back together, 

You made me whole again...

You washed me Pure.

& now my heart is forever in Your hands.

Somehow, Someway, Someday

I know,

You will take all my pain away.

You will turn my tears of anguish into tears of Joy

From the ashes, From the pain

You create a beauty that cannot be found any other way.
