and Jesus took her by the hand and said "little girl, get up..

brush yourself off, and keep on keeping on

i promise to hold your hand every step of the way

i promise to pick you up each time you fall down

at 2am when you can't sleep i will be there because you are mine

sometimes i will pull you up my the shoulders, because you enjoy wallowing in misery a little too much..

you sinned but i paid for it so move on.

sometimes i will drag you forward by the wrist, away from the past..despite how much you like it here i have better things

sometimes i will stand in between you and what you want and i will ask you to trust me

and sometimes i will put my bum in the dirt beside you to try and help you see why we are staying in this season for a while, to show you the things i am trying to teach you, to open your eyes to the purpose around you

i will slow your racing heart and calm your violent thoughts with the love that i have for you
i will hide you and you will be safe because i am far mightier than the things you dread

and when you sleep i rejoice over you with singing.."
