this present darkness

It's running on a road.

With it all around.

Depression, worry, doubt, fear

guilt, shame, confusion, the calendar

comparisons, food issues....

It's locking on my feet, at my side, piercing my heart.

And then I reach a hand out and grab

a scripture, read a christian book, listen to sermon.

Just enough to keep pushing on.

I'm barely moving my feet,

sometimes it's like spinning,

the darkness makes me loose sight of the path.

I end up in fetal position crying over a child's messy room.

Feeling scared sitting at the park because other women are there but not Cassie.

So I grab some, I reach hard.

And I keep moving the feet. Keep pushing.

This is non sense.

There are two scriptures that God keeps feeding into my heart.

Bring light to the darkness

It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away,
the Counselor
will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. John 16:7

Influence Link Up

Hello if you don't know me I'm Katie I {obviously} blog here and you can find my instagram & twitter ---> Two things in my bag: 1. My cute little notebooks I found at Target and a variety of pens. I love pens. No seriously, you should see my pen + sharpie box. 2. My phone. I am a HUGE picture taker. I love taking pictures and using all the fun picture apps and posting pictures. If you love taking pictures come find me, we can have some instagram fun!!! Two things I'm looking forward to: 1. Hugs & coffee with friends. Friends I've never technically met. Friends that I will never forget, that will be hard to leave, that just get me. 2. Learning. Learning more about who I am. About the amazing way God created me as a woman. Learning from all these wise women that live with realness and grace. Being filled with His word. See you in 2-ish weeks!!!
