Her words were so encouraging, genuine and from her heart. I am so very proud of her and where she is in her walk with Christ! I know how challenging it is to be in high school and strive to live for Him. Later that night she sent me a text telling me she had written a poem earlier that morning. IT. WAS. BEAUTIFUL. I asked her if she wouldn't mind me blogging it and luckily, she didn't.
Here is a poem from an angel dear to my heart.
You see my dear, it is not that I have lost my joy,
or when it comes to speaking of him, I have become coy.
No no, its the love that I miss,
when he completely consumed my life in sensational bliss.
He was my reason for being, the only thought in mind,
not just someone I went to when I'm in a bind.
He was the one I went to for everything, the love of my life,
giving me peace and joy through all trials and strife.
Yet being the wretched sinner I am, I have lost focus.
Losing my main source of water, like an old dried up crocus.
I have allowed my life to become a distraction,
and my communication with him a subliminal transaction.
So it broke my heart, reading my old prayers.
Remembering the depth I had in continuous layers.
But no he is not gone, and in him I have remained.
For he has conquered death and to sin I am no longer chained.
He is my heart and my everything, my joy and my smile :)
my love, my grace, my words and my style!
He will not be forgotten, no matter how hard satan tries.
Through thoughts and temptations and the numerous lies.
I will not give up, not give out and certainly not quit!
For it is to him and him alone my life I commit.
In light of his glory, everything else becomes dim.
Forever and always, I will choose Him.
I was speechless after reading these words. Alex is so young yet incredibly wise.
Thankful and so encouraged by this sweet girl.
