fear really does paralyze
cant move my body
cant speak
the words of the song scream at me
'touch my mouth with your hands'
the old tapes want me to run away
my heart drags me closer to the cross
my body sags in weariness from this all too common battle
familiar tears
sigh
when will my own heart's cry be sung?
when will i be set free?
how long is this walk?
how will i fare along the way with this journey chalked with seeming failures and insecurity
friends draw near
foes flee at the sight of my God
and i hear myself say
I am at peace
" I swear the english language is out to get me."

"when will my own hearts cry be sung!" - crazy... so many times that has gone through my head! And... the English language... i would have to agree. I can never get what I want to say out either. :)
Hey sweetness. I'm here for you. I Love you beyond myself. His heart drags yours towards Him. I praise Him for his faithfulness and peace in you.
1 Corinthians 15:10 - by the GRACE of God, Maria, you are who you are, and his grace to you was NOT without effect. Even if you work harder than anyone... it is not you, but His grace in you that walks you towards your freedom... that will make you who you are in Him.
i know where you're coming from. I know the feelings of "I'm never going to get past this", of believing the old lies once again. It sucks. I know.
I also know that you are growing, that you are becoming more and more like the One that you love everyday. I see it, I see His work in your life, even when you don't
And I hope i can be one of the friends who will draw near.
I love you.
that's pretty cool Maria!
You've got deep stuff on your blog
