There is Something New

The Prayer for you

by Danielle Atkinson, posted in sadness, grief, pain, prayer, peace

The prayer I pray for you is just to guide you through.
The words that I choose are those that help you make it too.
For even when the days are rough, even when you want to give up, know that I am sending up a prayer.
Understand there is someone who cares.
When you have come to the fork in the road and you are not sure how to go He will guide your footsteps.
My prayer for you is this: God take care of those who read these words. Protect them, guide them, show them your love. Wrap your arms around them when they are in need of grace, and keep them from hurt, or harm and their sins Lord, would you please erase.
Thank you for answering them and showing them the way.

Blessings

So now you see beauty, as plain as it is.

It is something you crave, it is something you believe.

What do others see when they look at you? Who are you trying to be, is it true to you?

Finding the true you takes some time, and actually seeing your beauty, takes some different eyes.

Your looks, your style, your comfort-ability are all the things that make you, BEAUTIFUL YOU!

No One Gets to Define YOU!

No One Gets to Tell YOU What Your Beauty Is WORTH!

No One Gets to Make YOU FEEL YOUR Beauty Isn’t Enough!

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, JUST CAUSE!

YOU ARE!

Always Growing

by Danielle Atkinson, posted in Choices, Growth, sadness, grief, pain, prayer, peace

This year has been very hard. I lost some very dear, loved ones and I am still grieving. I have been stuck in a place of wanting to go forward and also wanting to remain. It seems like the two have been parallel in time. In saying that, I have kept moving, growing, learning, creating, and exploring the complex world around and I have given myself a space and time to just be. I have stopped trying to answer all of the mysteries surrounding life and I have kept my thoughts and hurt inside.

I write today because it gives me a comfort to know that I am not the only person who is grieving, and if I can give just one person faith to know, seasons change. We are always growing whether we want to admit it, it is what we do. We grow through hurt, pain, grief, love, laughter, heartache, joy, anger, and all of the other emotions we have. It doesn’t mean we will understand all of the why’s, but we Will grow through those times and keep growing.

I have chosen to use writing, and educating, and joy to keep growing and in that I intern will work out my grief in my own way. So remember, when you meet a person, give them space to work out what they are feeling because we all need time. We are all growing!

I Haven’t Written in a Long Time

by Danielle Atkinson, posted in Memories, Pain, Help, sadness, grief, pain, prayer, peace, Uncategorized

I haven’t written in a long time not because I wouldn’t.

I haven’t written in a long time just because I couldn’t.

There were a lot of things that I could have said but I didn’t want to.

So now I feel the need to say what I have been through.

I lost my mom recently and it had me down.

My words should give hope to someone so that’s why I write them down.

I am trying to open up but it’s easier to stay in the shadows and not make a sound.

Quietly thinking of memories we shared. Her and I were alike in ways that seemed different until now.

I miss her voice though it still echoes in my head. I miss her love although it will always be around.

I will be alright because she left me strong, and one day I’ll see her again so I’ll just keep holding on.

Is This It?

by Danielle Atkinson, posted in Sleep, dreams, vision

Are you not seeing the manifestation of a dream you envisioned simply because it doesn’t look like what you thought it should look like? The dream you had that you thought about, prayed for, saw in your mind, looked like something else. Is this it?

I know, it can’t be what you wanted because it requires more work. It requires more development. It requires vision to be used so that the full picture is actually seen. My dream was a particular house, in a particular location, with a certain look. Well, I found my dream house, but I didn’t want it at first because of all the work it needed to be exactly what I wanted.

I almost walked away from my greatest blessing because it, “didn’t look like I had dreamed”. I realize now that what we dream about is like a mirage, and when we finally see what we want to have the beauty is that we can use what we see to create what we want it to be.

Keep dreaming, but don’t be surprised when the dream you have also requires the vision you need to create the total picture!
