I wrote this in my notebook at some silly hour the other night. I'm not sure if it's poetry, but anyway..

Before I sleep.

A moment in time, frozen
Intersected with every second of my day
Every thought entwined
Every emotion entangled
I stare

I rearrange the collage of my day
Replay it in my mind
Disentangle, pack it away
Save, edit and delete
I learn from each mistake, make notes
Savour each heart beat
Each glimpse of change and something new
I thank you for every part

You were here yesterday
Constructing each moment
Preparing my way
making room for my mistakes
Safety nets for when I fall

You hid away treasures for me to find
And Blessings at every turn
You were there before
There as each second passed
Here with me now
As I unpack today in my mind
I see you

As I fold today away
I thank you, for your love
I thank you for your Grace
As I thank you I know you're preparing tomorrow
I am safe in you
I sleep
You watch over me

Whatever happens in a day is known by God. Today has been stressful, tonight has been emotional, awkward and other feelings that fail to fit easily into words. I know though, that Jesus is my saviour and He loves me, no matter how much I fail, He's here. Some days really suck and sometimes life doesn't make a bit of sense, it's horrible, but there is hope in Christ. Always.

Thank you Jesus.
