Hurt
The weather was cold and brisk, streams of sun bursting through grey clouds, a contrast my soul could relate to.
A place I always go to when I need to feel close to you. I know Lord you are not there in the physical, but visiting this spot gives me comfort in my spirit when I feel like dying, when the broken is just too much. How do we even know what you look like really, as your statue stands there, arms stretched out, the steps to you cascading. Its harder to go up than down, yet as I was sitting there, praying to your concrete memorial, because it's something tangible when I feel so all alone, I asked you if you could even hear me, and if you knew how broken and alone I feel, and as i looked up, there stood a bench with the name Hurt written across it. So fast was my strength restored, as I sat there like a baby bawling in gratitude of such a quick response.
So many times I have been there, and never once noticed that bench. Your timing is perfect, your strength is made strong in my weakness. Thank you Lord for hearing me, thank you for renewing my hope! ❤️
