On the Poem "Of Black and Gray" by Lemskie...

I can feel the deep remorse of the poet as she talks about the effect that her sadness brings. How people make her feel useless and unworthy. Not even her past achievements can awaken the lost energy of that broken feeling...but everything happens for a reason, even the lowliest moment in our lives come about for a purpose.

God allows us to experience sadness and pain for two reasons: Either He wants to make us stronger and braver or He wants to remind us that Human strength is a strong deterrent to trusting in Him. Sometimes we rely on our so called Greatest Assets and tend to forget that those assets are gifts from God…we even fail to acknowledge His presence in our lives.

When we are hurt and in pain let us spend some time to ponder over what happened recently…Maybe, God is trying to tell us something...Stop for a moment and keep still, for in silence you will hear Him speak.
