Heart of Stone

A heart of stone is hard to break.
Yet, I believe it can be done.
But like the sculptor's masterpiece,
Must be taken with great care;
Chipping away a bit at a time,
Showing constant love and concern,
Never giving up or losing hope.
You may not promptly see
the tremendous progress made,
But always believe you've helped
Fill this heart of stone with love.

Memories

Within

Wanting, striving to be a better me... Always trying to be more like Him. Often not feeling I'm doing enough; Getting discouraged and then, Comparing myself to others. Because He's always watching, He helps me see my gifts-- Reminds me of His love. His love is everlasting, With none does he compare. Helps me see my true identity: A lovely daughter of God. --July 14, 2003 I think I wrote this reflecting upon previous feelings of inadequacy.

Opposing Forces

Life is a war between good and evil; Who are you going to choose? We want to be victorious, But sometimes we forget the way. When you're bombarded with troubles and worries in life, Look to Heaven--find the answer there. That One will always be by your side. The other forever deserts you. So who do you choose? --16 July 2003
