For Mother's in light of Mother's Day (coming up)

With Love from my Daughter Lauren Danielle

Mother Dearest

Love ~Lauren

Now, mother dearest of all the world, I know hard you try

I know how hurt you may feel when things just don’t go right.

I see how hard you strive, to fulfill our family needs,

and save for last your very own precious, precious pleas.

And though at times you may struggle through, I can always look forward to your smile

and mother dearest of all the world, it carries me for miles.

As you speak of God’s adoration, you walk with a joy-filled pace,

as everyone can see it on your bright and shining face.

To hear your laugh, and see your face aglow,

Spreads peace and cheer, yes this I know.

Our voice and character seem alike, and I hope this will foretell,

my future self being just like yours or even half as swell.

Now, mother dearest in all the world I know how hard you try.

But you need not try at all, for you always get it right.

Motherly, Daughterly Walk

Out on a lovely night

What, a wonderful sight

Look, at the bright shinning moon

For our motherly, daughterly walk.

Drawing beautiful memories across the sky

Our bond draws closer, the tighter it ties

The sun is setting

No one is fretting

‘Cause we’re walking our motherly, daughterly walk.

‘Round the corner

We’ve past the former

So many streets

Just for our feet’s…

To walk our motherly, daughterly walk.

It’s just like our life

Somewhat full of strife

Up and down hills

Support each other through thrills

Lean your head on my shoulder

‘Cause now I’m much older

I’ll support you

What ever we’re goin’ through

On our motherly, daughterly walk

Tears fall from our eyes

And you sympathize

Our special bond

Has grown real fond

On our motherly, daughterly walk

Sad you may feel

Grief I may steal

To make you happy once again

To make you happy once again

On our motherly, daughterly walk

We pass by the lake

Let’s pour in our aches

Give ‘em all up

Refill our cup

On our motherly, daughterly walk

“hmm~hmm~hehe”

You fill me with glee

Now tears of joy

Will deploy

Soaking your back

We’ve a laughing attack 

On our motherly, daughterly walk

That great big smile

You’ve carried a long while

I’ve still got a long way to go

At times it’s a frown

When it’s upside down

At these times you must know

Love is a healer

Not just a concealed

It’ll supply you all that you need

Until He comes on that bright shinning steed

On our motherly, daughterly walk

I love you…Lauren Danielle April 25, 2005

Because of HIM

Okay, so I should really be in bed right now trying to get some shut eye so I can some what function tomorrow at work. Honestly though, if I were to put this here computer down and try to go to sleep I would find myself drowning in a lake of tears. Yes, you heard me right. I said, "a lake of tears". I know I don't normally show a whole lot of emotion on here (my blog). But this is one of those few times that I feel as those if I don't release it (my overwhelming emotion) it's going to come out on it's on through my aching heart, and at this point my aching heart can't take anymore pain. It's liable to go into massive cardiac arrest.

Little dramatic, huh? Yeah, well that would be my life at the moment. Ehh, who am I kidding. That would be my life period! 

This world I am living in right now is not the world I grew up in that is for sure.

Nuclear plants leaking into our oceans and atmospheres.

People filled with such anger that they feel the need to gang up on a single un-armed adult and beat them to near death with everything but the kitchen sink. These are men, woman and children and this is not even considered news worthy.

Children divorcing their parents and siblings. (I know of this first hand)

Abortion/the murder of innocent life, becoming birth control and not only every woman's right but every tax payers and employers responsibility.

And

Love - no where to be found. 

In the family? Where? You raise a child to love and respect and forgive. Then, when they grow up they turn on you. Spit in your face. Where is the love? The respect? The forgiveness? There is none. 

Perfection. They expect perfection. You have none. You are not perfect, no one is perfect but God. Still, they see themselves as righteous in themselves and turn there back on you.

So, love, in the church can you find it there? No. The church is busy looking for love itself. Busy, busy, busy. Going here, going there. Never really getting any where. All the while so many in the church just needing to be loved. Needing someone to love.

How about in the world? Can you find love in the world? Perhaps. Perhaps if you wander to and fro you will find a love for a time, but noting that will truly satisfy you deep inside.

No. Not deep inside.

However, I have found it. I have found love. 

The love that satisfies. I have learned through the years. Through the betrayals. The loss. The tears. I have found HIM who has pursued me.  I have found HIM  who has followed me and walked along side me.  I have found HIM who has kept me safe, through the fire and the storm.  I have found HIM  who has held me close when I was all alone, abandoned and confused. Yeshua is His name. 

Since I have found HIM, who has been pursuing me I have never been the same.

Through all the trials. All the heart ache. All the pain and tears. I know in my heart HE will turn it around for me. So I know I can make it and in this I have peace and take JoY. 

Because of HIM.
