God’s Love Over His Daughter

I love her. Oh, how I love her! I have chosen her from among my daughters, and her children I have consecrated to myself. Upon her I desire to pour out ALL the graces of my Sacred Heart, which burns for her as a man burns for water. She is my consolation, my comfort, and my joy. Her very presence before me makes me leap with joy! Her very existence brings me ecstasy. None can doubt my love for her, for I have made it visible, I have made it clear. My love is like a raging fire, seen for miles. My heart overflows.

In the span of human life…

Not enough time to show you

of a good man?

Truly, if I am without fault,

and he without guilt,

what woman can know my sorrow?

Desires Inside

Nervousness, and trembling flowing over

Why the insecurities under

my beating heart, my blanking mind,

my rushing through impossible time?

I Believe

I Believe

I believe he will come back again

I believe this is not the end.

When flowers bloom, when Love commands

Christ will not let this time extend

And when he’s here vs. when he’s gone

the time shall flow like years have come…
