Favorite Quote:
I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.
Vincent Van Gogh

In spite of everything I shall rise again: I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, and I will go on with my drawing.
Vincent Van Gogh

Take my grief,
Let me know You're there.
Take my misery,
Let me know You care.

Take my sickness,
Help me grow.
Take control
When I let go.

Say You'll take my fears away.
Relieve me of this pain
That haunts my everyday.
I'm calling through the rain.

Take my hopes,
Give them wings.
Give me more
Than humanly things.

Take my doubt,
Help me see.
Take my chains.
Set me free.

Say You'll take my fears away.
Relieve me of this pain
That haunts my everyday.
I'm calling through the rain.

I've fallen so many times
Through the night and day.
You've picked me up
And again I turned away.

But now I choose You.
Turning to Your face,
I'm here to stay and never leave.
Send me down Your grace.

Say You'll take my fears away.
Relieve me of this pain
That haunts my everyday.
I'm calling through the rain.
Set me free.

The author's comments:
I wrote this at a time when I felt so lost and alone. I had really grown away from God, and I just wanted to cry out to Him. I did. I cried and cried and asked Him to take all my doubts, fears, hopes, and pain and to turn it into something beautiful. I am so thankful that He is always there for me.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
