Let me move through this, oh Lord

Let me walk through the darkness

with light in my steps

knowing that truth dwells within

Let me grow through this, oh Lord

Let me know that the lesson

was worth the pain

and through the struggle

I did gain

A love that brings me closer to you,

a knowing deep inside

that the beauty that is…

inspired through my heart center

is purpose.

Blessitude!

Lorrie ❤

  5. You are moving deeper into profoundly richer soil, Lorrie. As The LORD draws you closer into His Heart, and your roots sink ever-deeper into His Love, may you blossom ever-more into the beauty He already fashioned you to be, from the Beginning.

    I am moved by this post. Can you tell? 🙂

    1. I can tell!! And it warms my heart! Your words are a poem in themselves and I couldn’t be more grateful to receive them and to live them 💜❤💚
      Thank you for your beautiful energy. I send lots of love and might.

      1. Don’t be surprised that my blog is gone. They come into being…and they go. 🙂 Like breathing…they seem to return again, in due course.

        I have a silly grin on my face.

        Have a great day, Lorrie.

          1. Ironically, non-attachment isn’t allowed here. Even my “deleted” posts aren’t “allowed” to be actually deleted anymore. I’m finding that a myriad of deleted posts remain alive on this site, regardless… :(…interesting…;)

            Thankfully, my conscience isn’t tormented by my offerings floating out there.

            Besides, (brace yourself. I’m about to be gross!)… like a hairball is to a cat…regurgitation = me on WordPress. 🙂

            1. AHHH! Lorrie! I confess — I’m ALREADY bursting with “buds” – all over again!! It’s the most funny thing… Some people are long, ardent bloomers: evergreens that never stop being wonderfully green! Then, there are odd plantings – like me – that sprout quickly (with intention), only to suddenly go “poof!”, but just can’t NOT re-bud and re-burst into bloom somewhere else!

              Creativity and joy are WONDERFUL things! You just can’t keep them down, dormant or dead 🙂 Life just keeps coming…and Coming…and COMING! The moment one blog “dies”, something really fresh wants to come up in it’s place.

              🙂

                Blessitude!! ❤

            2. I have to say it was quite the visual…I can see the whole hocking thing!! 🙂 Yes…I have never deleted anything from my blog…so I wouldn’t know. But I do experience my issues with it from time to time.
              Hope your Monday was fun! Have a great week ❤

    1. Love this song. It was suppose to be used in my wedding. Only problem was that the sound people messed up with the song choices, unfortunately. But I love this song.

  7. Hi Lorrie, I had just gone into your blog yesterday to see if you had written anything recently. I hadn’t seen you in my Reader. Lovely prayer, my friend. I’m a huge believer in our sufferings being our teacher. I believe you believe that too.
    Have a wonderful weekend Lorrie, and take a nice walk on that nice beach. Wish I could. Haha.
    🙂 ❤

    1. Thank you, Staci! It is true that we work through our pain and the outcome is the gift of love and understanding. We are so blessed 💚 I plan to get up to the beach this weekend…I have not been there for a bit and honestly, EVERYTHING is better when I do! Sending much love!!

      1. Oh my gosh. If I lived close to the beach, I think I’d be on daily walks there. Hahaha. But then again, I don’t live close to the beach, so that does influence my thinking on this. 🙂
        Hope you had a lovely weekend, and made it to the beach.
        🙂 ❤

        1. Ah! Isn’t that the way, Staci? I know it is hard to believe that I don’t get up there every day. I at least try to drive by it if I can’t walk on it.
          And I did get up there…even though it was cold…translated in the 50’s. I also saw it today and it was full of sea grass/seaweed…I’m talking loads and loads of it. I will post the photos…eventually. It does not matter what is there…it is always beautiful to me. And I know how lucky I am to be so close to it!!! Much love to you, my friend. I hope your week started out super!! ❤

          1. It’s been a busy week Lorrie. And I was sick last weekend, so it’s been a little rough getting through it. Hoping for a more focused and energetic week next week.
            Have a lovely weekend, my friend.
            🙂 ❤

  19. Dear Lorrie, “Is Purpose” was such an incredibly honest way to start this.
    You are walking through this.
    Growing through this. And you gained from this.
    And I did too.
    Love, Harlon

    1. Thank you Maggie! I had a tough week and a half, but hope that I am climbing out of that. I’m happy you liked the poem/prayer…I really like that some of my recent writings do feel more like prayers 😉
      I hope you are well and that you’ve seen tons of Robin’s by now! 💜💜

      1. I too hope that you are climbing out sweet Lorrie and getting all better. I am doing well. I have seen lots of robins and one is constructing her nest in my carport. I will be looking for babies again this spring. ❤

        1. Oh! Maggie…you just reminded me of one of my favorite sights ever since I was a child…coming upon a broken robin’s egg on the ground after hatching!!! That color is truly one of my favs!!! 🙂
