“The Real Deal”

happiness is a state of mind
and the only state i wanna live in

i can’t fake being happy
i can’t fake being sad
what you see is what you get
but i DO have a goal
to be more

i wanna be happy ALL the time
no matter what the circumstance
unless tragedy strikes of course

some say that’s impossible
but I say they’re wrong

from inside God’s heart
ALL things are possible
and looking inside God’s heart
there’s nothing to be unhappy about

making decisions creates a reality
and the way i react to that reality
can make a difference in the world
either good or bad

“Check the Lighting”

for the one who lost a baby
newborn pictures will look different

for the one in an unhappy marriage
wedding photos will lack joy

for the one who lost their kids
family pictures may not form a smile

sometimes effects of experience
change one’s perspective
and the only way to change it back
is through alignment with Him

“Atmosphere”

you know
I don’t know the future
what God has planned
if anything will be the same
tomorrow
as it was today

if anything will change
to the beat of my heart
if anything will change
the beat of my heart

it doesn’t matter

where I look
will be a view
where I wake
will be a sun
where I sleep
will be a moon

so many things
are different
yet the same
so many meanings
have changed
from before

Taste and See

Lately, I’ve been asking God about His phrase ‘taste and see.’ I’ve been wondering what the reason was behind putting those two words together. In the natural, they just don’t make sense, but in the spiritual, they have a whole new meaning. Continue reading

To Find the Heart

The scenery on the road of my perspective has changed multiple times and will keep changing, but recently, God has revealed to me one area of my life where it has changed dramatically: the way I see men.

Even through sobriety (and my beginning years of being a “Christian” woman), I would look for men I would sleep with. I never saw their heart, only their appearance. Continue reading
