Pain deep inside
Hide it
No one can know
Hurt and despair
Hide it
Make it disappear
Anger on the surface
Hide it
Make it go away
Inside where no one knows
No one can see
The reservoir where all is hid
No one knows she thought
No one can see
It’s hidden well
Outside a calm exterior
Inside a boiling caldron
Emotions raw
She feels worthless
Nothing is right
What is the answer?
Will I ever find value?
Will I ever have peace?
Light, bright light
Truthful light
Blinding searching light
Light shinning into her darkness
Pain long hidden revealed
Hurt and despair uncovered
Hidden anger exposed to this light
The light of God’s love shines into her soul
All that she thought hidden now revealed
He saw it all
He will never love her now she thought
Gently He said, “Give it all to me”
“I can’t,” she said,
“I have had this so long
I don’t know how to let go”
He said, ” I will help you.
Give me your pain and I will heal the hurt deep inside
Give me your hurt and despair and I will exchange it and
give you you healing and joy.
Give me your anger
I will give you my peace.”
It wasn’t easy
The process long
He didn’t give up on me
His light of love bathed my damaged soul
He restored me to what He created me to be
Emptied of all these destructive feelings and emotions,
I am filled with His perfect love
He set a guard at my heart’s door
When pain, hurt, despair and anger knock again
He answers
No room here to take up residence
No place in her life for you
When Jesus’ love shines in your life
You are forever changed
