I heard this song, and thought of you guys :)<3
I can't pretend
to know how you feel
but know that i'm here
know that i'm real
say what you want
or don't talk at all
not gonna let you fall
reach for my hand
cause it's held out for you
my shoudlers are small
but you can cry on them too
everything changes
but one thing is true
understand
we'll always be more than a band
you use to brave the world
all on your own
now we won't let you go
go it alone
be who you want to be
always stand tall
not gonna let you fall
reach for my hand
cause it's held out for you
my shoudlers are strong
but you can cry on them too
everything changes
but one thing is true
understand
we'll always be more than a band
i never knew you could take me so far
i've always wanted the home that you are
the ones i need
reach for my hand
cause it's held out for you
my shoudlers are strong
but you can cry on them too
everything changes
but one thing is true
understand
we'll always be more than a band

There have been things i've been struggling with, but today i read these verses which really encouraged me. Maybe it will for you too- in some strange way or anotherr :)
Romans 6: 11-14
"In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Jesus Christ
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires
Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness
For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace."
He has already broken the shackles, the chains. We no longer have to be bound or be a slave to sin, but can live in freedom and righteousness.
Romans 6:5-7
If we have been united with him like this in his death,
we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection
For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with,
that we should no longer be a slave to sin-
because anyone who has died has been freed from sin
God, thankyou for the freedom you have given me. Sin shall NOT be my master. You know exactly what i have been battling. But i know that because of your death and your grace i can be alive and free<3

what are you so afraid of?
What are you so afraid of?
Letting people know how you actually feel?
Your inner thoughts-
Is it because saying them out loud would make them true? real?
that you have these issues and you have these problems
Or is it because it's so much easier to hide behind
jokes and a false sense of self esteem
because its clear that you are insecure
But it's okay
cause everyone has felt that way
at some point
it's okay to hurt
it's okay to cry
It's okay to have a past
But what's not okay
is never opening up enough, to let people who care-
listen,
comfort,
& be there for you
So stop avoiding the questions, the calls
Why are you so afraid to have a real conversation?
To let people know who you are- past the loudness, past the laughs, past the outgoing exterior
are you afraid of what people might think?
well screw what they think!
You are who you are
in all your entirity
-your strengths, your talents, your weaknesses, your faults, your pain, you joy, your thoughts & opinions, your secrets, your struggles, your issues
So don't be afraid to face yourself
- this life that you live
and if you don't like what you see
change the way you live your life
take action
or are you just gonna brush it all of like it just don't matta?
until it slowly builds
and kills you
Don't be afriad to share
and talk about it
- the things on your heart, what's got you all wrapped up
Cause yes, they're real
and there are some things we can't get through
alone
Despite how strong we thing we are
Well good news
You're not
alone
Some have been there, some haven't
-but are willing to listen
There are shoulders to lean on
You don't have to put on a fasuade all the time
cause it wears you down
But confiding in others is quite cathartic
& realizing that you are loved no matter what-
if you just try, you'd be surprised by what you find
- a common struggle, a common goal, a resolution, a realization
so go ahead
just let it out~

Dying for truth
Eager for something more
Seeking for your prescence
Praying for clarity
Empty, thirsty, hungry- fill me
Running to Your Arms
Afflicted,hurt, scarred- heal me
Trying to find my way to YOU
I Need You, and You alone
Only Your love, Your touch, Your voice- can mend the brokeness
Nothing compares to the hope i find in You
Eager for something more
Seeking for your prescence
Praying for clarity
Empty, thirsty, hungry- fill me
Running to Your Arms
Afflicted,hurt, scarred- heal me
Trying to find my way to YOU
I Need You, and You alone
Only Your love, Your touch, Your voice- can mend the brokeness
Nothing compares to the hope i find in You
