broken, but hopeful
just a poem i came across. thought i'ld put it up.
.
.
Broken, but hopeful
In 102 different directions, my mind is racing;
All over my restricting room,
I find myself pacing.
So desperately, I'm trying to establish balance.
Although, it seems I'm lacking the talents.
Gently, softly, you whisper in my ear---
"Be still, and know that I am God"
Frantically running, searching for answers,
I'm too busy to hear---
"Be still, and know that i am God."
Fatigued, I collapse into the comfort of my bed;
Overwhelmed, i try in vain to plan my day ahead.
I acknowledge my dependence upon self is futile.
Your constant strenght in my life is crucial.
You say, "I'm all you need;
Without me you wont succeed.
I'll be your refuge, your hiding place.
Just calm you anxious spirit and seek my face.
"It's not about you; it's all about me.
Now proclaim to the world what i have done for thee.
Bring glory to my name.
Tell how you will never be the same."
