Listening to every heart

0 posted 2004-03-29 11:36 AM



There are times when the best of us
get hit by the lowest of feelings,
when depression seems to fly swiftly in,
and we've become Alice with low ceilings...

Pray with me, please, for one of our own
who needs the knowledge of freedom's flight...
keep this poet safe, Oh Lord,
until the day doesn't seem like night...

Thank you.

I too have known this feeling.
My thoughts and prayers are there to hopefully comfort and uplift this dear member.
I wish I could soothe the empty place inside your heart where tears are born.
Heart hugs, Nancy.

*Thank you Karilea for letting us know to gather the prayer circle once again*

Kari darling heart this is beautiful and whoever you are feel the light it seeks to reunite you to your soul. I can almost see the arms of hope surrounding you, take care sweet one and remember you are special

My Choices

My choices are few he said so sadly
Then he shrugged his shoulders helplessly
You’re not seeing clearly, look once more
You’ll find solutions that you didn’t before
Chances are, if you seek them you’ll find
A way for you to have some peace of mind
Don’t give up so easily look and see
You’ll find the answers there eventually

I can’t go on or walk this path of pain
There’re so many tears they fall like rain
He bowed his head and I saw the fear
That weighted him, kept him bound here
I touched his hand with sympathy
Then softly said please listen to me
You’ve given in and feel touched by blight
Seek instead the path shining bright

It’s hopeless he uttered in a weary way
I can’t face the thought of another day
I watched in sadness the tears he shed
As he uttered the cry I wish I were dead
Don’t give up I said you’ll get through
Trust in hope and believe as I do
Don’t stay in the shadows afraid of the night
Lift your eyes and seek out love and light

Your choices are many, just look and see
Seek out truth, and you’ll have victory

Marsha

Love and warm stuff
as always
Mushy



Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds
but I can face the future with courage brave and bold

From the darkness comes a light.
Bright enough to blind the demons.
I too have been there.
Prayers are on the wing~

I also know of this demon of depression.
Please, whoever you are, know that you are
not alone. There are so many here at Passions
who care. I do and all these others do, too.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
With love and heart hugs,

I know first hand how encouraging this place can be. I owe so much to each of you that this seems an inadequate response. But certainly my prayers go out at this time. I pray for peace, strength and hope.

Our poet is doing much better, lovely people..thank you SO much for all of your kind thoughts, your compassion, your notes of "I know what this is like!", and extending your hands to hold one that was in the dark.  

No wonder I you so....

I have experienced first hand the power of our Passion's family prayer circle.  I most willingly join the circle at this time to pray for our family member who is need of our prayers and love.

A family that prays together, stays together!

God bless you both!

ALL feeling thy HeartSong
  Rankle knowing one page away
    lies the same for Lies be ALL
      That hamper thy way dispelling distress
        Remembering twas just another day
          Lost in Moonlight guiding away
            Away delight away removing blinds
              Vines carress thy window want
                Therein to anoint thee
                   Ever Skyward as you
                     Keep turning they
                       Grow inside to
                         Take thy hands
                           Shaking thee
                             Announcing
                               AWAKEN
AWAKEN, AWAKEN, AWAKEN, AWAKEN, AWAKEN...
     Whilst green paints the Earth
        You Shall Hear this Call
              Awaken
           Now equals Evermore
                  Awaken
