About Me


Won't you chase after him with your whole heart?
Extended Network Banners
I’m trapped inside of a trap with no way out.
I’m physically bound to my trap.
My mind grows weary from my confines.
It just me, myself and I in this dark place not being able to see or feel.
Oh, this trap is suffocating, only if I knew the magic word like abracadabra to make it all go away, but I can’t instead when ever I move it moves in closer.
When I think it gets darker.
Oh where is the light the one side I can walk out of I know it’s there.
Where is your knight in shining amour when you need a damsel in distress to be rescued?
The one moment when the light goes off in your head and you say eureka I’ve got it!
My heart has even stilled it self as if no hope of being free to breath again, how it loves to exhale, but that what has me trap in the first place.
Love, it’s blinded me.
It’s bounded me, its got hold of me physically and mentally.
I can’t move or think without it up and getting stronger on me causing me to get weaker with every growing need.
It feeds on me getting better as I draw closer to my resting place.
It is shedding me taking on new life, giving birth to a new identity that is a bustle of joy to be here.
Preparing to live a long and vicarious life.
Me in my trap is only a small grain of salt in this new life.
The sky soars with clouds everywhere as I walk to my final destination a voice whispers that its okay to be scared but once you pass my gates all your chains shall fall away.
Your mind will be free.
You shall see true paradise because I will rain down praise and shower you with my eternal life.
You shall be loved unconditionally and unyielding because you are my child.
You are a child of GOD, where his love is everlasting and given freely.
At last I am where I belong wrapped in his Love and Grace.
Jesus meets me with open arms.
I look through the clouds one final time, I know I have been rescued from internal damnation.
I take on wings to cross over into my little bit of Heaven.
How everything glows and shouts out a joyful noise.
I shine bright as a shooting star in the dark night knowing I am free as a lamb covered in the blood of Jesus, at last I have been delivered!
Amen!
