Prayer/Poem

Dear Lord, While I am still in a sound and right mind; I ask that you be with me in those times I am not. In those times that I feel too weak to pray or call on your name, please be with me. Those times when I allow Satan to filter my mind with thoughts contrary to Your word, when he tries to convince me that I am less than and not equal to those things that you say I am, please be with me. In those moments when my anxiety and depression reach an all time low, and all I can see is darkness and despair, please be with me. When I am feeling all alone, let me know you are there. When my mind races and my thoughts flow rapidly, and I lie awake all night pondering the stresses of my life, please be with me. Please be with me God. I ask you now while I feel strong, while the enemy hasn’t encamped their army around me. Bring back to my remembrance, Romans 8:37 “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us”, and 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 “But he said to me, ...

Just Let it Go...

Just let it go Put it back where it belongs Wherever you got it from Return to sender When you hold on to it…it crumbles When you stare at it…it vanishes For Christ’s sake …let it go. Put your focus on assured things. Put it down... step away…and… Well… Let it go. Written by Melinda Y. Sanders 2012 ©

Don't Hold Your Breath

Gasp! How long can I hold my breath? Let’s see! Holding… …holding… …holding… Me waiting for my more is equivalent to me holding my breath. I see it. I want it. I need it. I keep telling myself to be patient, But my cheeks have extended past the point of tightness. My eyes fiercely go open and shut. My heartbeat is racing erratically. I am yielding to the point of fainting. Yet the insistent hope of my more makes the near death experience worth it.  Writtwn by: Melinda Sanders ® 2012

Just for a Moment

Just for a moment to be free, To rid myself of this agony. If but just a moment to breathe my life, To live one day less my strife. To be embraced by the aroma of sanctity, And be humbled by the Master of Eternity. If but for a moment... PEACE!- Should choose to reside, I shall clinch it tightly in my hand- FOREVER!- In my hand. 2012 ® Written by Melinda Y. Sanders

Melancholy!

I cry because I’m sad Or ... I’m sad because I cry I'm not aware of the difference I don't know if there is a difference God, I’d give anything to be stronger I’d give it all up to just not crumble I wish more than anything not to have to try to keep it all together I’m postured in a state of defeat I try to remember the motivating words Try to recite the uplifting scriptures They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength Weeping may endure for a night...joy comes in the morning Yet, my beating heart throbs My core feels bruised And my soul feels weakened I can’t see pass the right now The light doesn’t shine for me The tunnel is closed. Liken to Dunbar’s verse… I too wear a mask! 2011 ®
