We all experience exhausting details throughout our lives, but for the sake of time today, I will spare you from mine! Instead, I'm posting some powerful, renewing lyrics that I sometimes run to during the extreme moments of exhaustion.
Words that help me process the path ahead as a single mom and navigate it one step at a time, straight through the wall of those bothersome, cumbersome, tiresome details:
Worn by Tenth Avenue North
I’m tired, I’m worn
My heart is heavy from the work it takes to keep on breathing, I’ve made mistakes, I’ve let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed by the weight of this world
I know I need to lift my eyes up, but I’m too weak
Life just won’t let up
And I know that You can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left
My prayers are wearing thin even before the day begins, I’ve lost my will to fight
So, heaven come and flood my eyes
Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That You can mend a heart that’s frail and torn
I want to know a song can rise from the ashes of a broken life
And all that’s dead inside can be reborn
Cause all that’s dead inside will be reborn
Though I’m worn
Prayers: Crying / I Can't Even / Here's My Heart
Kelly, I’m glad you know you can find strength and renewal through the Holy Spirit of God. May he continue to carry you through this life that’s so “daily”! Thanks for sharing your heart. God bless – es
Thank you for that, hugs friend 🙂
