My mom makes me feel like I’m a disgrace to this world. Like I can’t do nothing to better myself in this life. I’m trying my best. I keep getting pushed back. Her filthy words are bringing me down. I don’t even feel alive anymore. Just dead.

Never enough Isn’t it
Lately I’ve been feeling like nothing is ever really enough for me.
Doesn’t matter who I talk to at the moment and how they make me feel..... it’s never enough.
I can listen to all kinds of songs that fit my mood but it’s never enough.
I think about past memories and happy thoughts, but it’s never enough.
I think about the future and it’s just not enough.
I am filled with emotions but it’s not enough for me to even have control of.
I am lost but.... even the loneliness isn’t enough.
I am alone and it’s now.... enough. Enough of me feeling like this.
Then.... I think of Jeremiah 17:9, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?”..... faith over feelings?

I hate temptation. Battling with temptation. As the days go by I pray for strength that God can give me, teach me, heal me, and show me the way. Because Jesus is the truth and the way. The light. The almighty.

Timeless Place
This day I woke to some not so great news. The news anyone doesn’t want to hear when it comes to a love one. A call from a grieving parent about a mother (grandmother) who passed away. It was something I didn’t expect to hear nor think to happen. I thought there was going to be more time for you. Time.
Timing is everything isn’t it? Time ticks and it tocks. Time runs 24/7. Day and night. 7 days a week, to a month, to a year. I realize in this realm where in, time will end. There’s a timing for everything and a stopping point. We are all assigned a clock for ourselves. So use time wisely. Before the moment comes where it’ll not run anymore. But there is a place where it will forever run. There is no end. There is  eternity. There is life. From way above. I think the biggest accomplishment to ever reached is being with the creator. THE creator of the universe. Wow. Leaving this world and going to a never ending realm. Known as Heaven. And so then, you reached the final stage. Nothing after that. A timeless place.
