Legacy by Nichole Nordeman

in Quotes and Stories

I want to leave a legacy

I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

The blackness of my heart
Revealed.
Wounded
infected
black and scabby
oozing and vile
Wounds upon wounds
One upon the other
Festering sores
Black heart
Pain and agony
I dont…
I don’t like what I’ve found.
I don’t like my ugliness
Worse,
I don’t want you to know
I try to put layers on
But they no longer fit
The blackness of [...]

Blessed are those who trust in the Lord….They are like trees planted along a river bank, with roots that reach deep into the wather. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit.
Jeremiah 17:7-8
