Broken Promises and Lies

You can't give me anything but broken promises, lies, darkness, and despair.

Oh, you promise...
You make it look so delightful, glorious,
You promise fame. popularity, wealth, but most of all you promise happiness.

But it's all a big lie, a trap, a hole to fall into, a bondage to be chained to.

Fear, hate, pain, wounds, and death is what I find on your path.
Lost dreams, broken relationships, emptiness is your plan for me.

This is not what I signed up for...

This is not what I was created for .





I was deep,
Deep in the muck,
Deep in the yuck of self, sin, and darkness.

And then He reached in...

And He said,"This one is mine."

And He drew me out,

Rescued me from the pit, washed me , cleansed me,
Dressed me with His robe of righteousness,
Adopted me into His family.

I became His daughter...took on His name...wore His ring,
He blessed me with the resources and blessings of the heavens.

All the years the enemy had claimed,
Was no longer my identity.

Now restored

All for His glory

What grace!
