Untitled as of now.

The dust starts to settle in,
covering the shelves and the cluttered corners,
layered so thin that it can't be seen,
but only for a moment before you turn your head.
Suddenly surrounded by memories,
filling in the holes and the space within your mind,
but it's nothing to worry about,
there's still plenty of room left to walk around.
The clock slowly changes pace,
quickening its toll until the screws begin to loose,
the thunderous rhythm resonates,
and finally you realize, you can't escape.

Re-Realizing

I always seem to find a way to forget about the peace I have in Christ.
Luckily, someone else remembered and reminded me before too long.
And then I remembered that it really is true. That no matter what I'm going through, whether it's hard or sad or confusing or whatever, there can be peace.
Because I know that in light of eternity, whatever is going on now is like nothing. A vapor, but dust, light and momentary affliction.
I am still eternally secure in the arms of grace.

Eternally secure.

More Confusion

I really just want to die and go to heaven.
I don't like dealing with things.
I don't like being the weak one.
I don't like failing repeatedly.
I don't like feeling depressed.
I don't like crying all the time.
I don't like wasting my time.
I don't like having no passion.
I don't like the way things are.
I don't like having such little faith.
I don't like waking up lately.

Praying for me would be an appropriate and very appreciated response.
