BROKEN DREAMS
As children bring their broken toys
With tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams to God
Because He was my friend.
But instead of leaving Him
In peace to work alone,
I hung around and tried to help
With ways that were my own.
At last I snatched them back and cried,
"How can You be so slow?"
"My child, " He said, "what could I do?
You never let them go."

Faith, trust and love in the Lord is what keeps the human heart and soul strong. HE is the only true friend that always has his loving arms wide open for us. He is always ready to listen to our problems and heartbreaks. No matter how big or small they might be, He will NEVER ignore your pleas or push you away.
But many times people lose faith because they feel our Lord didn't answered their prayers. This is not true! Remember that God always knows what is best for us. We are the ones that get blinded with desperation and disappointment when we see our Lord answered our prayers, but not in the way we asked him to. Our prayers many times are more like demands and expectations.
We tend to say, "Lord, I want this or that, this way, or that way, now, soon, pronto!", instead of saying, "My dear Lord, my heart is hurting so much with what I am going through; I don't think I can bear anymore. But I know it in my heart that I am not alone. You are here with me in these hard times. And as my loving Father I know you want what is best for me. Today I place in your loving hands my life. May your will be done and I promise you that I will accept it, for I trust you and love you with all my being."
Now can you see the difference? ;)
Super Love You my dear Picos, have the most wonderful day <333
