Been a while. 18.6.20
Its been a while
Just had to
Check in with you,
See if you are tired,
Dear Lord, 'coz I am
Angsty too.
So many issues
All at one time
Please Lord
slow down!
I'm just trying
to make sense..
circumstances
seemingly
assailing me.
Am trying
No, honestly I am
To chin up
Paste a smile
Pretend I'm tough
But You know the
inside story
Not very pretty....
But, let me try something else
Let's put some faith in action...
Lord, now I'm turning around
To check and see
if Your goodness and mercy
are following me?
And I'm not surprised
here they are!
Not the way I'd expected
But not far!
So I slow down
Maybe sit a bit
Catch my breath
Rest my wits!
That's if I still have 'em!!
Ok, got You smiling
I can too
Glad You're here
to see me through.
My boys
Working out
Sets, squats,
Weights, bands
Muscles ripped
Calloused hands.
Guess my faith's
Bit like a muscle
Stretch and sweat
Not all pleasant..
Hmm....
can't muscle up
that much faith
Definitely not on my own,
But You've promised
To carry my load!
Seriously?
All of it?
You must be kidding..
All my worries, cares and angst?
It'll be too much for you- won't it
There are so many of us
And only one of You
really don't want to overburden You.
You, You insist?
Ok, cool, here it is..
Really feeling lighter
What a relief
All my cares
to lay at Your feet.
And to rest
Here in Your peace.
And now I see,
Maybe all this bad stuff
has good written
in between the lines
There'll be some good
Coming out of this mess
So, I'm going to
Trust You for the best.
Not struggle and fight
'cause You're
the scriptwriter
the Author
of our lives!!
