texasred43: herleadingman: WeightlessFor years the weight of the world was on her shoulders. The days and nights of carrying the responsibilities of others left her too tired to care for her own responsibilities. It was her duty, she thought, to put others ahead of herself. So that is what she did. She truly wanted everyone else to be happy and cared for, but no one was ensuring that she enjoyed those same feelings. So the inevitable happened, those feelings were noticeably absent from her life. There was a void there that was inescapable. There was no one to make sure she was resting. There was no one there to tell her she was beautiful. There was no one there to tell her that she is doing too much. There was no one there to thank her for her efforts. The stress and fatigue inevitably turned to bitterness and isolation. In time though, the weight upon her became unbearable. She could no longer shoulder that burden. She began a journey of finding what was missing. She was determined to fill in the void. She started saying no to those whose demands of her did not lead to her fulfillment. She prioritized the things that she needed and found that many, if not most, of these things could only be found in the arms of a strong man. She was tired of fighting against what she knew that she needed the most. She needed Him. Not just any male…she needed Him. The one who will protect and provide for her needs. The one who will tell her to stop trying to please everyone. The one who will help her make wise decisions. The one who tell her that she is beautiful and mean it with all He is. The one who is worthy of being her leader. She was never more happy when she laid these burdens at His feet. She took the unbearable weight of life and placed them in His capable arms. She exchanged the weight of worry and responsibility for the weight of His essence. When His weight was upon her, she finally understood what it was like to be weightless.
