What happened?

thought I had it all together

thought I had them all fooled

hiding behind babies, play dates, church faces

I really was a normal person

living a clean, balanced life

then what happened?

something cracked it...

once cracked,

insides started leaking..

slowly at first..

a drop..
then a trickle...
streams to a torrent...
now out of control.
want to reign it all in,
close the dam, suck it all up..
but I can't.
it's my truth.
 
ugly, broken, twisted..
yet still longing to live,
reaching for the sun
craving warmth, freedom
just needs a safe place
to grow, supported
held with gentle hands
and the truthful whispers of the Creator.
to know I'm still loved
to know I can be remade
to know what I've broken
can be restored, made stronger,
reflecting Your glory and power
in the small, beautiful places.
take me there, Jesus
to my Healing Place.
