Where did all go wrong?
Why have I been blind for so long?
How can I not see?
The love You constantly showed me...
I was focus on my weakness and flaws,
lost in pain and constant withdraws...
Surviving instead of living,
believing even wile lying,
crying even when outside I was smiling...
Tired to hopeless fighting,
broken down from constantly trying...
Not a tear left to cry,
all I wanted to know was why?
So I went down to my knees to pray,
no answers, so I pray every moment of the day.
I refused to give up or surrender,
I let go of a life of being a pretender,
looked at the mirror and faced the one to blame
I knew than I could no longer be the same.
I started to focus in my strength and the good in me,
discovered gifts from God that set me free...
Saw His love,mercy and grace,
found comfort in His forgiving embrace...
My faith came alive with fire in my heart,
a desire to help those that from Him came apart.
Didn't know how, but knew when,
"Now" is the time,giving all I can...
Undeserving and unqualified by the world,
enough and sufficient in His word.
Scared not to complete His plan,
realized even though I am just a man
He who lives in me is greater than all,
He is in everything and will never fall.
Living and breathing His truth and sharing His love,
not a moment goes by with out giving glory to the One above.
