and Purposeful Prose
Tired Beat down Run into the ground How shall I face the day... With this weight that hinders my pace? Struggling Worn out My soul thirsts in this drought Where shall this weary way lead? I need some rest and peace. Tina W June 11, 2021 Roses I really really needed this song. I've had [...]
Mental unwellness It's a tide that makes life bleak It's a struggle The constant juggle Emotions like waves of the sea Anxiety, guilt, and grief Low moods and high water Life can feel like a teeter-totter Where's the balance? Where's the peace? Sometimes tears are a release But then it begins again Driving me round [...]
I’d like to introduce you to Joshua Samson. If you haven’t found and started following his blog, or if he hasn’t found you, I’d encourage you to give him a follow. His blog has only been up and running for about a month, but he’s off to a great start as he writes from his heart.

Everyday, we as a family are hearing the news about the passing away of a loved one. The day before yesterday, it was a dear family friend. Yesterday, it was my grandpa. Today, it was my aunt.
Unfortunately, this is the case across the world. COVID-19 has hit almost every household. Almost all of us have lost loved ones. You may have lost an immediate family member. Or a distant relative.

It's so true. You really can't see (or understand) the complete picture until you've walked a mile in someone else's shoes. I'm not sure a mile is even enough ground to cover it. It's far too easy to judge, point fingers and cast stones. Yet, at some point on the journey we all do it. [...]
Deliberate Intentional Distractions These words quickly come to mind As I try to adjust my course Of course I can't do this on my own The spirit is willing But the flesh is weak Thoughts churn The heart yearns The mind learns That fire burns. Yes, deliberate That’s a good word! Focus Stay the course [...]
Before the day rushes in Before the war begins Before I rise I know who wins. Before the lies take hold again Before my path begins to wend I'll take God's hand For He's my friend. Tina W. June 4, 2020 Jesus: Friend of Sinners ❤ Jesus is a friend of sinners in the sense [...]
She trusted and lived by faith Setting out one blue-sky day Mesmerized by tide pools Such wonders she saw and gleefully proclaimed. Like a river to the ocean She was gently drawn down lovely streams Following the current Of all she loved and passionately believed. Some days were grey Her strength grew weak But still [...]
I want to grow wings And rise up again Will I find my way? Do trials ever end? I want to live I want to be free Will I find my passion That I lost at sea? When I fall, will I rise? Will I hear God's song? Will I find my strength When I [...]
