I haven’t been all I could be. I don’t serve you as much as I should.
When I committed sins, you didn’t turn your back on me when you could.
I thank you for that Father.
I’m trying to change, trying to progress, because without you I become emotionally drained.
I surrender. I truly do.
For it’s only you that helps me get through.
Once I was trapped in the dark, silent tears of unhappiness. Silent tears of confusion. The enemy tried to get a grip of me, but at first I don’t realize because it slowly had crept upon me.
I prayed but not hard enough at first because I was still detained. Until I shouted your name, uplifting you Lord, my sorrow had erased.
I realize that I’ve had to go through valley of hurt, and to still believe that you’d help me, that’s the true meaning of faith.
I trust in you. I know that my life isn’t over, until you say it is.
For now on, I’m going to be all I could be, for I know that Christ lives in me.
