What lies beneath

Often people don't see, the tears you shed. the time when you cried out for God so badly. Often people don't hear, the prayers you pray in the secret place. Often they dont know, the hurt and pain that you go through. Often people don't realise, that smile on your face, it had took a lot of courage to put on.

People always think that we have it all together. To be honest, i don't have it "all together". I may seem happy on the outside, but they don't know the struggles on the inside. The hurt and pain that hit us, and comes to haunt us sometimes. the helpless anticipation, trying to find natural remedies to relieve that pain instantaneously.

But above all these, what lies beneath is a soul that is vulnerable, that is so precious to Him. A soul that is soft and tender, that he can make it His home. A soul that is willing to be shaped, willing to trust. Willing to be refine. Willing to surrender. A soul of gold.

And, I can tell you, He is looking for that.

In our weakness, His strength is perfect.

Love, Amanda
