My Scars are My Tattoos

I do not have any body art, or what most people call tattoos. Several of my friends and family members do. I think their cool and would get one…if it didn’t hurt!

I do have other tattoos that go deeper than the skin. I have scars tattooed on my heart from my past. Before I was diagnosed with bipolar, my life was completely out-of-control. I have done things and said things that I am very ashamed of doing and saying.

The story doesn’t end there. I know someone who has tattooed my name on the palm of His hands. Jesus. It doesn’t matter what I have done or said, He took it to the cross and there it stayed. The scars on my heart are still there, but they are covered with His blood.

Your scars, whatever they may be, are covered with His blood, too. Just accept Him as God’s one and only Son.

Frustration

I’m finding it so hard to rid myself of this overwhelming feeling of frustration, lack of fulfilment and lack of purpose. I’ve been out of work for over a year now, the longest ever, I know we are living in a pandemic but I’m just letting off steam. Today I just can’t seem to concentrate on anything and I’m getting so angry with myself and feeling hurt. It actually manifests as pain in my chest because nothing seems to help. I even shouted at the piano because the piece I was trying to play just didn’t work out and I can’t do anything right. #cross #frustration #Unfulfilled
