We live in a HURTING world
because we are living human beings
with HEARTS
that beat, beat, beat~
breathing life into us
that FEELS.
And with FEELINGS comes HURT.
The saying HURT PEOPLE HURT PEOPLE
is so true
as isn't a HURTING person
looking for comfort
looking for someone to
take the HURT
so that they don't HURT anymore?
But what if you felt the HURT
that is tucked deep into your beating
HEART
instead of burying
the HURT
hoping it will go away
so that you don't have to FEEL?
You can't ignore your HEART.
Do you have a HEART HURT?
Oh I do
because I am a FEELING human being.
The tears are forming
as I write.
I see tears as HEALING TEARS
as I release them to
the ONE who knows TEARS
as JESUS cried TEARS of blood
in HIS great anguish.
And if JESUS CRIED
how are we exempt
from TEARS.
HEALING TEARS
become
HAPPY TEARS
as they set you
FREE.
I didn't wake up HURTING
and wasn't even thinking
I was HURTING
until the song
"I WON'T LET GO" started playing in the background,
triggering TEARS to flow
as I remember GOD'S FAITHFULNESS
as HE was always there when I was HURTING
catching my TEARS as they flowed.
And now the floodgates are flowing
as a HURT of sadness
bursts from my heart.
BUT GOD.
is our HOPE
for THE HURTING HEART
because
we never HURT ALONE
because
HE PROMISES THAT (lyrics from I WONT LET GO)~
I WILL STAND BY YOU
(2 Timothy 4:17)
I WILL HELP YOU THROUGH
(Isaiah 41:3)
WHEN YOU'VE DONE ALL YOUR CAN DO
& YOU CAN'T COPE
(Matthew 11:28)
I WILL DRY YOUR EYES
(Revelation 21:4)
I WILL FIGHT YOUR FIGHT
(Exodus 14:14)
Because our GOD
is always
WORKING FOR THE GOOD FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM
and
when you are
HURTING
HIS GOOD
is that
HE PROMISES
I WILL HOLD YOU TIGHT
(Isaiah 46:4 )
&
"I WON'T LET GO"
