My scars

The scars on my arm are a visible reminder of the battles I fought, the burdens I bore

They are a physical reminder of the silent struggles, the darkness

For some, scars fade, but for me my scars went so deep they healed raised above the skin

Every day I’m reminded to fight

Every day the scars remind me to take another step

Every day the scars remind me that I’ve been to rock bottom and I survived

Every day I fight to fulfill my purpose on why I’m still alive

In the darkest moments I wished I wouldn’t wake up

Now those dark moments are just a memory

I long to live, to tell others of Who I met and Who I now live for

I now have a new purpose to live

He saved me, raised me up, and continues to resurrect me into the person I am created to be

I am a new creation, created to love and to be loved by the One who created me and knows me best, the One who rescued me from the dark

My Scars

 

In courageous faith and for His glory alone,
