There is still

A future

A hope

A plan 

You have today and it's beautiful

Reclaiming pieces of me

The voice within

The voice within tears me down

When I let it

The voice within breaks my own heart

When I let it

The voice within tells me I'm not worth it

When I let it

The voice within needs

New words

New thoughts 

New truths 

Over and over

Letter by letter

Believe it

Faith (in me) comes by hearing

And hearing by the Word of God

Some people with you for a moment

Some for a lifetime

Connected for a purpose, for such a time as this. 

Something always to be learned 

Teach us about ourselves

What we need 

What we need to change

Trusting God with who needs to be in my life. 

Part of His purpose

Part of His plan

Tug of war

Give it...

Take it back

Give it...

Take it back

Tug of war between my will and my spirit

I'm frustrated with His timing

I'm frustrated with not knowing 

Show me something!

Give me something!

He who promised is faithful (Heb. 10:23)

Oh. Yeah. 

You will accomplish what concerns me (Ps 138:8)

Ok 

Giving it back

Your will be done

If I try

If I try to plant

My hopes

My dreams

My desires 

The chance of them not coming to fruition is great. 

If I give them to my God, my Father

He plants

He waters

He brings the sun

They grow

They flourish 

Only in the hands of my Father can my dreams come true.
