Spirit Filled Sunday #12


Yesterday on February 11, 2012, pop music diva Whitney Houston transitioned from this world. At the time of this post, the cause of her death is unknown. What is known is that she leaves behind a large list of musical hits, tons of adoring fans, loving friends and family and a daughter...a young woman with a full life to live... this one is for her...

Pain strong
hard hitting
in places
you never knew
pain could dwell
Sleeping doesn't ease the blow
'cause even your dreams
are filled with the reality of what is

the talking
gossiping
speculating
wondering
assuming
prying

opinions flying
voices carrying
rumors soaring
about the tragic death of a pop icon
with the voice of an angel
and with demons...
demons that do not give you peace
until they take your very soul

But who is praying
praying for a young girl
who has lost so much

her idol
confidant
friend
Mother

God knows the pain of losing one so dear
HIS arms are
open
ready
wanting
to take you in
hold you
rock you
comfort you

Run to HIM
Look to HIM
Lean on HIM

Your lost is beyond measure
but HIS love will cover you
HE will give you peace

Let your tears fall
Let your anger rise

And when you are all cried out
Let Jesus be your strength
Let God be your safe place

Know that although you may feel alone
HIS word says
HE will never leave you nor forsake you

I am remembering your mother
but most importantly
I am praying
I am praying
I am praying
For you
