Dead End.

Because when you reach a dead end, the only way out, is up.

***

A small part sadly hums Green Day's Boulevard of Broken Dreams,
that tune is over,
and I smile, echoing those words from the heart -
'Amid the wreck of my little world He is firm, and I in Him.'

Just when you thought the trees were dying,
shedding those last, lifeless leaves of autumn;
and winter's dark long nights and short glimpse of day,
gnaws within your soul,
All hope is forlorn....
It eats on you, it eats with you,
it eats..you.

Nay, spring is near.
It can only come when autumn and winter has come.

Will you believe it though everything seems contrary?

'Behind all the bustle and care, the divine rainbow of Peace has risen. We know our life is borne and in unity with the eternal life of God.'

-D. Bonhoeffer.

I love Your Yes and Your No over my life.
Knowing that You don't always give us what we want,
but what we need but am too blind to want.

I believe.
I trust.

Though those words have far too long lost it's meaning,
thank You that You've restored its true meaning back in my life.

I find in these days,
You are the anchor of my all-too-faithless soul.
