THE ANSWER IS IN THE CLOUDS  

My daughter open your eyes to the beauty 
in the Heavenly skys.
Let each little white puff of a cloud
 engulf a great big WHY.  

Keep engulfing all your WHYs into 
this beautiful white clouded sea.
Now my daughter, once they are all 
gathered together and look so freightening - 
look beyond the dark clouds and see ME.  

When all the WHYs are gathered together,
 they appear as a storm cloud above.
My arms can reach beyond these clouds,
 bring you above and wrap you in my never ending 
love.  

Once these clouds hold all they can hold,
 I release them to fall
into the sea of forgetfullness.
Never again to be brought up
 and again stir up the dust.  

Put each WHY and hurt into these clouds
 to be carried into my arms.
My sweet child, don't reach back into
 the sea of forgetfullness
and bring these hurts back up to harm.  

Leave them there and know they are in my care.
My Armour of God you will now carefully wear.  

The enemy's darts will no longer be able
 to enter your heart.
Healing will begin and you will
 have a beautiful new start.  

Don't look at the past and what has been done.
Know when I stretched my arms on the cross
 - those battles for you
I have won.  

My forgiveness covers you and
 wipes out the past.
I will bring you up higher
 and it will happen very fast.  

You see my daughter,
 I have souls for you to touch.
They long for healing and look
 for direction oh so very much.  

You are now armed with new courage
 and weapons of Praise.
Teach others to look beyond the
 dark clouds and to Me let 
their arms be raised.  

My daughter I am proud of you for
 the battles you have won.
Know the enemy will be defeated
 for all the damage he has done.  

Look to Me for strength,
courage and your new walk.
Let me guide you, direct you
 and give you the words to talk.  

Know that when you pull one of those
 WHYs back down from the sky.
You'll see that I've really sunk
 those WHYs into the sea and there
will be no more "God - why? why?"  

Lean on me my daughter for I am strong.
There will be no more feeling
 that you are in the wrong.  

My hand will be forever upon you
 and cover you with care.
The reflection of Jesus will
 cover you until people will
stand in awe and stare.  

Keep your hand in Mine my daughter
 as we walk this fine line.
Together we will pull those percious
 souls in and I will gather them 
up in just a short time.

My past just keeps coming back to haunt me.
I have no family around as far as parents,
My dad was killed in a car accident 
when I was 16,Im 36 now .
I have so much anger, hurt, and 
bitterness towards my mother, I never 
want to be like her. Any ways
she moved off  with my youngest 
sister 16 soon,but didnt bother 
telling anyone where she moved.
  

Well that just dug the knife 
deeper. I hold a lot
of anger in because of the way 
she raised me.
My gosh you name it Ive done it,
prostitution.
jail, abortions, drugs,alcohol....you see.  

I do believe in God He has 
brought me a long way.
See I 'm  married to a wonderfull 
man and have
three beatuifull children 
12,15 1/2  and 17 1/2.
They also know God.I did raise 
them differant.
  

My mother never told me about 
God or church camps .
Ive only been saved for about 6 years. 
I feel I am slowley drifting away 
from God, my hurt 
inside stays deep down.  

I have let some things go but I always
keep a little inside.  

Mighty Warrior _____ is a true friend
she knows how hard I try to let go.
She also knows how much I hurt.
That girl has prayed
and prayed for me ,over and over again.
I dont think I would be here if it
wasnt for her prayers.
  

I keep asking God 'God just 
break my heart and start all over again Let 
the healing tears flow" but I 
hurt so bad and hold it in so 
much I can't even cry any more.  

Sure I can cry But I need God to let
those healing tears flow, I dont care if 
I cry forever, I need to get rid of
the hurt I have kept in me for so long.
I feel I can't allow God fully inside of me
because Im afraid of being hurt again.  

I know God would never hurt me. God's love 
is pure and gentle. I know he led me to 
your web site and I am so gratefull he did.  

I enjoy your poems so much, reflections
really touched home with me and so did others.  

Please keep me in your prayers for
healing. I would like you also to keep
 ________ in prayer also. She doesn't write
poetry, but her music ministry is awesome.
God has blessed her voice
mightily.She is a true friend .
I have no idea why Iam even telling you all of
this, I guess God has led me to you.  

Thank you for your poems of
encouragement. They are truley special.
May God continue to bless you .

Update:  

These poems are usually a confirmation of 
something that God is already dealing with 
a person on and here is further evidence of that.  

Hi Sharon ,
 What can I say but Praise God!
 Thank you for the encouraging
words.  ...............Let me guide you, 
direct you , and give you the words
to talk...........Sharon those words
were straight from God. I told you
nothing about how I had been praying for God
to give me words to speak so
I may bring forth his words to witness 
and to comfort others. God knowes
exactly what we need before we even ask.
The poem was just what I needed.
I printed it out and have told myself
I will read it everyday. I am claiming my
healing. Satan has NO chains on me!
I thank you and would like to continue
to keep in touch. I showed the poem
to ________(Mighty Warrior) and you could
see the tears begin to form. By the way she
was asked to speak at a church
tonight! God continues to bless her ministry.
I thank God for people like
her and yourself.I pray Gods blessings
on your ministry and again I thank
you for being obedient to the voice of God.
