Of Course it is Not Easy

"Are you holding on? Are you up against those ropes? Because I know how it feels to lose hope."

~Of Course it is Not Easy~

Our lives  will not be given flowers and candy all the time. 

It will not be handed good drink and food every day.

Our lives live on during the day.

Our lives live on during the night.

There has to be a meaning behind it all.

Behind the pain,

Behind the handshake from the hypocrite.

Behind the sorrow laden days.

We fell

We fall

We hear it all.

We hurt

We cry

We die to life or death every day.

Our bodies long for something more.

We long for truth

We long for acceptance

We long for the pain to stop.

Life will not end in this world

For this world is broken

This world is finished

This world needs something more.

Life can be given to every man.

There is a man who gave it all to help us through the pain.

He gave us hope

He gave us life.

The eyes of a child

The innocence of it all.

The hope shown through young blood.

God gives us a way to learn what true hope is.

True hope is confident

It is for sure

It is logical and moral.

Hope is a faith and love that transcends our brokenness.

Remember pain will always come,

Because of this we need to come together and hope by love,

And overcome what this world throws at you.  

And overcome the flesh that bogs us down. 

Love the loveless.

Love the unholy.

Love for the hope given to every man.

Love and know that true hope is just a prayer away.
