The voids are a darkness 

So hard at times to fully identify in name

But so easy to identity in symptom

Heavy, Angry, Low Self-Worth

Fear, Abused, Abandoned

Just to name a few

As I discover that I yet have voids

It disappoints me

But also gives me hope.

Why? Because I recognize that I do

If I can recognize they are there,

I can dive into discovering what they are more clearly

And if I can discover what they are

I can fill them with the Spiritual Healer 

A Healer that makes all things new

All things fresh. All things.

The holes don’t get to continue to pierce my soul!

One by one

I will open myself to accepting some things about me

That are a little hard to swallow

And then asking the Father how to transform those things

So that the void doesn’t get to stay open

Open like a vulnerable sore

Oozing poison into my soul

Lord fill the void

So that which was not given to me long ago

Doesn’t get the chance to take from me

The joy, blessing, and purpose of what lies ahead for me.
