Waiting for my "Isaac"


Tears wet my pillow at night for the loneliness which gnaws at my heart.

I bleed thinking of the happiness which may never be mine 

And my heart so yearns to belong to someone…

Not anyone…

But the man my Father has chosen and blessed for me.

To have and to hold.

In sickness and in health.

Till death do us apart.

To be shrouded in the cloak of sacredness

Just as God intended.

For this I wait upon the Lord

In anticipation,

Some days in pain and in sorrow.

Days turn into nights and days again

Waiting for my Isaac.

Where is he?

When will he come?

When?

I smile because she smiles...

For You I Will Smile

I wrote this poem reflecting on the actions of some of the dearest people I spend most of my life with. I understand I cannot change the actions of people. Only they can change themselves. People who are the closest to us and Jesus, are the people who hurt us the most. I understand people will always hurt us with their words and actions, but we who hold on to Him sincerely, who persevere in building relationships and not breaking them down will do our utmost to forgive and let go of those hurts, because we who understand the heart of God for people, understand that no matter what, people matter.
