Just Let Me Cry

I'm tired today...Some days it feels like the world is on my shoulders. I am powerless to be everything I want to be and to do everything I want to do. I am learning to rely on my Savior more and more. I am learning that Faith is a very deep principle. We all have different trials to face, but we all taste of the bitter and sweet and carry our own burdens. Sometimes it's big and sometimes it's small, but no matter what it is, it's hard for us.  I am so thankful for the angels (my friends and family) around me who lift me up and sometimes just give me a hug while I cry...I love you!


Just Let Me Cry
by: Hilary Weeks

I believe that everything happens for a reason
We’re not just tossed by the wind and left in the hands of fate
But sometimes life sends a storm that’s unexpected
And we’re forced to face our deepest pain.

And when I feel the heartache begin to pull me under
I dig my heels in deep and I fight to keep my ground
Still at times the hurt inside grows stronger
And there’s nothing I can do but let it out

Chorus
So just let me cry
I know it’s hard to see
But the pain I feel isn’t going away today
So just let me cry
‘Til every tear has fallen
Don’t ask when and don’t ask why
Just let me cry

When I agreed that God could put this heart inside me
I understood that there would be a chance that it would break
But I know he knows exactly how I’m feeling
And I know in time he’ll take the pain away
Chorus

I have felt joy, the kind that makes my heart want to sing
And so my tears are not a surrender, I’ll feel that way again
But for now, for this moment
Chorus

I believe that everything happens for a reason...

Sometimes we hold ourselves back

This picture reminds me that Jesus Christ is always there for me. Just waiting for me to turn to Him and lay my fears, worries, trials, and sin at His feet. I am nothing without Him. This song really speaks to me teaching me to let go... Oh how I need Him. I get so frustrated when I hold myself back because I don't let Him in. Just always know He is right there waiting... just waiting... to heal us.

Waiting for Me
by Julie Yardley

Here I am again
Seems like I'm standing still
Knowing that it's finally time to start
There have been some things
Keeping me from moving forward
I can feel them holding back my heart

Chorus
So I'll face my fears
I'll give up my pride
The choice is mine
That's how it needs to be
Trusting in your love
I feel a change inside
And I can see
You were just waiting for me

You've helped me believe
That I can move this mountain
That I can reach the other side
This is what I want
And the road it won't be easy
But with you there I know it's worth the price

You never gave up
You've always been there
Patiently waiting for me
