Today would have been my parents “50th” wedding anniversary. I spent yesterday with my dad, we had a great day together. We both miss mom and though we don’t discuss our missing her often, we know just by looking at each other and see our hearts. I had always dreamed of celebrating “Their” day with a surprise party filled with family. I would still recommend planning things as a good and noble thing to do but don’t wait to say and show your love and appreciation for only special occasions, I hugged and kissed my mom before saying goodbye at the end of our phone conversations and visits. I do wish we could have had more time but the time we did had, I tried always to show and tell her how much I loved her, she was my mom and she will always be within my heart. There’s special bonds with mothers and daughters as well as dads and daughters. I am so fortunate that I am able to still be daddy’s little girl but also his friend. Family unites us, sorrows connects us and God holds us and protects us with His everlasting love.

Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

For days now, the winds of this life have left me
Wanting…searching…lost…and forgotten.
Satisfaction is elusive in a very real sense,
My thoughts, they deceive me
What is fact and what is fiction,
They are all scrambled one upon another, what to do…
I have lost my way, a ship at sea with no sail, no captain
Oh God of heaven and earth, lead me back to you
I need what only you can give, forgiveness and acceptance
Only you can love me though undeserving I am…
Your unconditional love will free me from myself
Please, I beg…take these burdens, teach me your ways,
My ways are weak and cause great pain
I ache and yearn for what this world can give
Alas, it does not sustain me and it pleasures in my pain,
Take those empty dreams and broken promises
Fill me with Your love, compassion and promises
For they will never fail, will never be withered by time
They will endure generation after generation with no end.
Oh God, clothe me with your love
Use me to send and spread your message to others
Others like me, longing for real joy, true happiness and
Limitless abounding love for always.
