Alone are the Lonely Ones in Deepest Despair

Silence captivates - in a loud unmanageable way
Road blocks of words - deafening stillness lay
Screaming whispers - of deepest despair

Every turn - each breath - every stare

Completely alone - in the midst of a crowd
Every touch point - loneliness surrounds
You over there - Me over here
Alone are the lonely ones - in deepest despair
************************************

"Alone are the lonely ones in deepest despair."

Oh how I remember - I was once, "the lonely one in deepest despair!"
No more!
I once felt, "alone in the midst of a crowd."
No more!
I once could not stay in a room without ambient noise of some kind, at all times because of the ‘screaming whispers’ of my past. Afraid of the deafening silence.
No more!
I have been set free!
Halleluiah! By the love of Jesus. I have come to receive the Amazing Grace of God and come to know Jesus our Messiah! Through him I have been set free from all the above. I no longer have to be afraid of my own thoughts.

Yes - Sometimes I feel so helpless, because as much as I remember what it was like to live in darkness and despair, (and I do remember) much of the time I feel so helpless. I feel as though I am so ill equipped to be able to adequately share with everyone just how incredibly, wonderfully, awesome, loving, gracious and beautiful the Lord has been and IS to me.
To be able to adequately share how he lifted me up (literally) from death's door. How he put a new song in my heart!!!

Heaven Awaits

Warm, soft, strong,
His arms hold me close.
Tenderness, peace, love.
He speaks with His eyes.

Together in silence.
Face to face at last.
Tears of joy shed together.
No memory of my past.

A love to die for.
A death to live for.
The two become one.
My Lord and me.

Heaven awaits.

Magnificent worship

You are- Magnificent

When I can't lift my head

To look to the hills

Only fall on my face

Besides my breath I am still

Magnificent worship

Life is in me

You are with me

Pick me up

Draw me close

Give me love - give me peace - give me you - give me hope

Magnificent worship

All of me - you are

I will be - you are

Not one thing can I do

Without you

Give me love - give me peace - give me you - give me hope

Magnificent worship

So lift my head - as I

Look to the hills - where you are

When I fall - on my face

Breath in me

BE life in me

Dance Holy Spirit in me

Pick me up

Draw me close

Give me love - give me peace - give me you - give me hope

Magnificent worship

Truth -Speak it out

When others push me away you draw me close.

When others knock me down you pick me up.

When I am dragged under by a multitudes of things, you reach down with your mighty, righteous, omnipotent, right hand and pull me out of the mess.

You love me so; oh Lord, you really love me so.

Each day passes by and you show me more grace; Amazing grace.

I watch the obstacles of nature; try to learn from the mistakes and traps Mother Nature sets for the wild animals; and still I fall flat on my face like a blundering fool! There you are in flat second ready and willing to pick me up and help me to my feet! You are THEE most amazing, wonderful God!

How can so very many people say, “There is no God"?

There is such truth in the proverb that says, “A fool is a man that says in his heart there is no God.”

For you show yourself evident in ALL things every day!
It takes a FOOL NOT to see YOU in SOMEthing!

Thank you my God for life! Thank you for being my God! Thank you for choosing ME to reveal such unsearchable truths to! For surely you could have chosen anyone and yet you chose me.
'lil ol' Amy Colleen.
Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!!!! Forever Thank you!
May my heart forever be a heart of thanksgiving. May my heart forever be a heart of love.

May I always seek to offer everything I have possession of, back to you'

For it has first come from you, my gracious Holy God.

I love you….oh how I love you!

With all my heart, with all my strength and with all my mind.

with all my love ~ your very own,

Amycolleen

Lord - My Lord

You are a rock.
Your word is true.
Your promises stand forever.
You have told me something, I hold it close to my heart.
I will see it come about, for you have spoken it.

You alone I will extol!
With my voice I will lift up thanksgiving to you,
For all that you have done for me!

Though the enemy encamps about my house;
I will not fear, for you watch over me.
To keep me safe and all that you have given me.
God is for me; who can be against me?

Away from me you evil oppressors!
There is no room in my life for you!
I am His alone; the one who bought me with his life!
The lover of my soul; away all else I say,away!

Swoop down at his command; hosts of heaven.
Charge the oppressor! Defeat the enemy!
Secure the home of his beloved hand maiden!
Let the Glory of the Lord come down!
