God, you have your arms opened wide waiting for me. You say you love me for who I am? Who I am with all these flaws an cracks, who I am messing up and falling on my face? Yet you are still there with your arms opened wide waiting for me no matter what. It's because you love me. Because I am your daughter. Because you have called me. Without you I am empty. Without you I am nothing. It's only because of you that I am something. You really do care. You really won't leave me laying in the dirt. Something may happen, but your hand is always upon me. You may let these things happen for a reason. A reason like to teach me a lesson. Although sometimes I make it harder for myself because I don't listen to you. Even though I may do it my way and learn the lesson the hard way. Yet you are still willing and patient with your arms opened wide waiting for me. Either way I will still learn the lesson. The easy way or the hard way. You have purpose for everything it's just a matter of me ring opened to see that. You love me just the way I am all cracked ad flawed. In your eyes I am your daughter and you are my father.
"I believe that suffering is part of the narrative, and that nothing really good gets built when everything is easy. I believe that loss and emptiness and confusion often give way to new fullness and wisdom." -bittersweet
"The idea of bittersweet is changing the way I live, unraveling and re-weaving the way I understand life. Bittersweet is the idea that in all things there is something broken and something beautiful, that there is a sliver of lightness on even the darkest of nights, a shadow of hope in every heart break and that rejoicing is no less rich when it comes to a splinter of sadness."-bittersweet
Isaiah 43:1-2
"do not fear, for I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze."
