in response to Allstaria's post...

Why do we do this to ourselves?

Sometimes, we really
have to feel the pain
before we can give
it back to Him...
why we do this to ourselves,
perhaps we shall never know,
for the joy in the release
is one of His greatest gifts...

I would gift this to you…
the realization
that you can be free
to love and live

instead, we take on the pain
of the day to day
the here and now
and become a martyr,
someone we do not want to be
but because for a brief moment,
we forget that He said
He would take on
all of our troubles,
trials and tribulations

but we feel we have to
do it ourselves

that is not what we are here for.

We are here to spread His Love,
and His Goodness

we are His children, and He
is our Father

and in Him
all things are answered.

One of the simplest statements, but the hardest thing to do, is Let Go and Let God.

But this is so true, His burden is Light!
We seem to give it to Him, and then He don't fix it as quick as we think He should, so we take it back, and all we do is screw it up more.  

Great words Karilea!
