My Greatest Asset
Sometimes I wonder. I know I’m pretty smart & intelligent Very adaptable to my environment I own warehouses of common sense And every once in a while I whip out wisdom From my hat like a magician I’m pretty calm and peaceful I have my fair share of troubles But I’m typically the one calming…

Lost In His Presence
Until I’m carried away And no longer care what people say Lord please help me to stay In your presence always When my world sways In the midst of troubles & delay When I find it difficult to pray In your presence I’ll forever lay Worshipping You in my conscious Till my subconscious calls you…

Strength
My own strength is fragile My power is inconsistent My will is not to be trusted. My feelings try to deceive me, every-time. One day I’m on fire, Another day I don’t even feel a smoke. My soul is weary, But my spirit is constantly with You Help me to know & live this. When…

Real Thanksgiving!
Somedays I’m tired, Sometimes I’m sad, Sometimes I’m happy, Sometimes I’m glad. Somedays everything seems to align, Other days things fall apart Like I’m Chinua writing these lines, And Living was my crime Somedays I have faith, Somedays I accept my fate. Somedays I’m proud of myself, Somedays I’m utterly disgusted. Somedays I know the…

Nothing to Prove

Deep

Falling Again & Again
I find myself falling again Failing the exact way. Even when I see it coming It overpowers me yet again. The pattern is consistent Suggesting I’ve run out of God’s graces. Remorseful, so I take the blame Then your blood reminds me You washed my sins away. How long until I learn? How many cycles…
