Prayer Request...
As a lot of you know, I made a really good friend two years ago on my mission trip to Rosebud Reservation in Mission, SD. named Diana. She just texted me with news that four friends of hers were in a very serious car crash this week. One of them didn't make it, Madeysen Kleve, who also attended the mission trip with us. This just kind of hits home, because although it was Madey this time, it could have been me or any of my close friends. I'm asking for prayers for Madey's family and friends and also the other three teens in the car; Mitch, Brie and Kacie. Mitch and Kacie are in the hospital, Mitch just got out of intensive care for a collapsed lung, cracked skull and other things and Kacie is still in the ICU as of right now. Brie was driving and wasn't seriously injured, but I would appreciate prayers for all of them. Also, they were all set to graduate this Sunday which unfortunately Madey won't be able to. Kacie is valedictorian and Mitch is salutatorian. Please pray for all their friends and family. It could have easily happened in our community. Praise God it didn't, but remember these friends of mine and their families. Thank you and I love all of you!
Trust? I Think Not...
As the thunder rolls outside
Panic ripples through me in waves
Not because of the pending storm
But the pending storm building up inside
The tornado of “what ifs” and “maybes” hit me
Ripping through the people who can be trusted
And the people that can’t until
Finally realizing only a fine line lies between
At one time trust was second nature
But after each piece of my heart was viciously ripped out
I finally began to understand
No one’s intentions are pure
Resolving to never trust again
I set back out into the cruel world
Where once again I was lured in
And unsurprisingly, hurt again
As routine as this has become, it still hurt
Time went on and the offenders got closer
Until the day came the one I thought I could always count on
Swooped in and killed my remaining trust dead
Though my heart, hardened from incidents of the past
Seemed beyond surprise and agony
It rose to the occasion and in spite of my good act
My heart could take no more, I could not last
With new found resolve
I make my way out of the shadows again
In the back of my mind
Always dreading, always knowing, the hurt will come again
"It takes years to build up trust, but only seconds to destroy it."
