Sharon in Wonderland

Through your word O' God I feel you when everything else is so loud, I get caught up in the world and my mirror makes me feel proud I close my eyes and concentrate on the promises You've made, my ego starts to wither away, from the price that Jesus paid You didn't have to save us from the horrors of our sin, but You so selflessly did so and Your word speaks that You win When I don't think I can make it through another day of pain, Your grace then is sufficient and pours down on me like rain You've silenced all the voices that were telling me those lies, the devil hates that I'm your daughter, but you've shown me I'll survive When I think back to all the trouble that you spared me from, I cry out not because I'm sad, but because I've chosen where to come Your love is a safe place in this dark scary world that makes us weep, but in the end your children we are and we are yours to keep Sharon of Glittered Atonement

The years have come and gone. Faster than I ever imagined they would. Life has thrown me good and bad. I have so much to write about. So many thoughts that have merely suffocated my mind. I've seen hell first hand. I've seen heaven first hand. Now, I'm somewhere in the middle. I'm luke warm! Not hot. Not cold. And that's the worst thing to be. Luke warm. I've changed into someone I never thought I'd be. I have a life I never thought I'd have. It's disappointing to wake up every day and know things could have been different if only I would have made the right choices. Choices. Life's all about choices. I made choices that affected my life, whether good or bad. Mostly bad. I've been trapped inside a person I don't know anymore. I see a stranger when I look in the mirror. I look back at old photos and writings. I don't know that girl anymore. My new goal? Find her again.
