About Me

I am simply a human, a woman, a child. I am a failure, and yet, a resurected light. I have looked into the black of night, and found no hope within its depths. I have fallen to the mercy of sins grasp and I have longed for life. After suffering, longing, dying, and pain I have found love. Love is the mercy that saves us from the severity of death. Love is the hope of all our days. I am simply a lost soul, a crying heart, an empty mind. I am a shell, and yet, a holy sanctuary. I have felt the sting of death, and found no solice within its hold. I have fallen into the willing hands of this dying world and I have longed for the arms of love to catch me. After wandering, praying, losing, and emptyness I have found life. Life from a man hanging on a worn and broken cross. Life is found in the hope of all our days. I have found, in my short and weary life, that there is no hope outside of the hand of Christ. That bloodied and pierced hand is all that can bring us the salvation that we need. We are the lost, we are not forgotten, we are not without hope. We are the lost, but slowly we are found. Found in a tomb that lays empty, in a veiled room torn from end to end, in a woman who lost the will to live, in a man who gave the world to save the sparrow. I am Whitney, I am lost, I am forgiven, I am saved. This is my life, this is my plea, this is my soul. I give it all away, Daddy, I give it all away.
