I made this image using Visual Poetry: http://www.imagechef.com/ic/poem/.
I chose this image because it represents the words in the poem. The poem is the first stanza of a poem I wrote in February 2004. At the time, I still stuffed my pain deep inside where no one could see. I would take it out in the safety of writing, and then stuff it back away. At that time, I never imagined that I would be able to reflect, heal, change, and become new. But God knew, and helped me to put my hope into words. He relentlessly pursued me until I surrendered to the hope he offered me. On the other side, I have found freedom, healing, and peace that I never imagined. The fact that the God who created heaven and earth and all that it encompasses loves me that much... it is too much to comprehend. I am so thankful that he pursued me and allowed me to experience a new life.
