Faith

This is the story of my life right now:

"Faith Isn't Faith Until It's All Your Holding On To"

I'm this close

everything is in arms reach.
i can feel you. i can breath you in.
i know your right there, your on every side of me.
i know you love me and im dying to reach out and touch you.
i want to hold on to you for life, never let go.
but the air around me is suffocating.
i cannot grab your hand or hold you
im held back by every other part of me
im pulled in all directions
and with every choice i make i hurt someone
you are in arms reach, but i just cant touch you.

its killing me and i dont know what to do

reach out for you?

stay right here?

hold on with everything I am?

save someones heart?

grab on and never let go?

or stay as I am

just reaching and breathing you in...torture

Psalm 23

Today I take every comfort and trust in this verse. For I need nothing more than Christ's love in my life.

¹ The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

² He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

³ he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

⁴ Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

⁵ You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

⁶ Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
