Waiting

Our hearts ache, but we always have joy. We are poor but we give spiritual riches to others. We own nothing and yet we have everything.
2 Corinthians 6:10

"Lord I give you my heart. I give you my soul. I live for you alone. Every breath that I take every moment I'm awake, Lord have your way in me."

Today I woke up with this painful sadness lurking deep inside. Once again I had no real reason to feel this way. I decided early on that I was going to shake the sadness and go about my day with an anticipation that the day would be so much better.

After fourth I was just hit hard with this absolute joy. I was given so much energy. I've been lacking that lately. I felt so complete. I felt satisfied finally. I was extremely thankful because I was able to sing again. I've been sick for a while and my voice has been out of whack. I was jumping around and dancing. I had many genuine smiles on my face today. I just wanted to share my new found happiness with anyone I came across. God has really been listening to my prayers.

He filled me with his love and closed the gigantic void in my heart. After school I was waiting for my ride. Everyone left so I was alone and it was dark and gloomy. I was starting to freak out but I silenced my fears. I knew that even though all the people were gone God's presence still surrounded me. In his presence I find protection and peace.

If you feel like what you are asking for will never come just wait on the Lord and you will most definitely receive it.
