Strength Training

This should have absolutely
BROKEN ME
beyond a visible,
hopeful repair.
I praise You,
my Beautiful God,
for how far You have
taken me!
The initial shattering
was resolved in silent tears -
during which You held me
close to You and Your
holy heart.

This should have ruined my day,
beyond the shadow of a doubt
left me in SHAMBLES
wanting only to be alone.
But here I am, Lord,
smiling, laughing,
eating pancakes on this
maiden voyage.
I praise Your Name,
sweet Daddy who loves me,
for picking me up and
making me stronger,
making me more.

I love You.
I love you both.
