Hero: Sometimes it just feels like you're locked in a tower...

You want to get out in the world, do things, meet people, but there's never an opportunity. You're always stuck at home. You might as well have been stuck in a tower.

Sometimes life feels like that. Like you ARE stuck in a tower or something. You're stuck. You want to move on. You want to get over the hurt. But you can't. You're stuck in a tower. Just stuck.

I'm stuck in a tower.

Stuck.

I want to get away.

But I can't.

I'm stuck in a tower.

Stuck.

But this isn't going to last forever. God can help you come unstuck. He can pull you out of those feelings of hurt and betrayal. He can pull you out of that feeling that your life's never going to be right, never going to be the same again. I've felt those feelings. You just feel stuck, and you want to get away, but you can't. You might as well have been stuck in a tower.

But then Jesus sets you free, and you can soar on wings like eagles right out of that tower.

I'm free.

Jesus guides me.

I'm free.

Flying over the sea.

I'm free.

God's with me.

I'm free.

God's the key.

Yes! I do.

Rapunzel is my favorite princess (well, actually in the real story she isn't a princess but she marries a prince... sorry weird fangirl moment.) :)

Great post. So true. It always seems like we are stuck in a tower. However, when you are stuck in the tower i think you need to learn to be content with it no matter how hard it is. P.S. glad we followed you. You are so awesome.

be nice ∞ be kind ∞ be a hero
