The Detour (On My Way Home)

 "FIX YOU"

It's like I have missed almost half of my life wandering aimlessly on a road where love and pain breathe the same air. Long suffering, blindfolded, I could not see the "love road" that God has promised me. I needed a lot of patient to learn contentment. God was there when the whole world turned away, I should have known earlier. I'm done with waiting for the coffee to pour itself in my cup. I came to the point where I didn't see how much He cared about me, and the thought of being alone was slowly eating me inside. All I have ever known was that I have been hurt too much and things just don't go the way I wanted them to be, seemed like everything I did ended up with the same outcome. I spent a lot of quiet time writing under the sunset, I felt like I was left on the bend. I saw how my life passed me by. I have always believed I needed the rain to be happy. Then I've realized what I need is the courage to admit that I was wrong. I know that I am almost done with this long and winding journey. I am holding on to the childlike faith inside my heart, I am giving "detour" its true meaning. No more questions. The search is over- back Home again.

Therefore we do not lose heart. 

Though outwardly we are wasting away, 

yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 

For our light and momentary troubles 

are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, 

but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, 

but what is unseen is eternal. 

-2Corinthians 4: 16-18


I have learned from pain and suffering. I understood that in every breaking, God has a purpose. Allow God to break what is needed to be broken. It's not to hurt you or to make your life miserable but to mold and fix you the way He wants you to become, according to His divine will- perfect and acceptable in His eyes.
