Sometimes
I get weary and very sad,
And
even quite depressed,
Of
things past, things present and even worry about things to come.
And
become quite unforgiving of the self which is me, your daughter,
Father,
here I am, once more surrendering to you, all my thoughts, fears, worries,
doubts and fears
All my
disappointments, the jealousy, the feeling inferior and an underachiever
I give
them all up to you,
I know
tis the old enemy who knows how down I get and wants to make me disobey by
worrying instead of praying and hearing your voice,
So
Lord, here I am, once more trusting you because you make all things beautiful
in your time and your timing is perfect; you are never late,
I am a
child of the great king, clothed in righteousness, won by the blood of a lamb
without blemish; a lamb who is also my high priest.
I wear
a helmet of salvation; a belt of truth; shoes of the good news of peace which I
proclaim readily, I carry a sword of the word and faith is my shield.
The whole
of Christendom awaits my manifestation; a glorious one
O my
Jesus, teach me in thee to abide day by day never fearing what the next second
will bring because you know it all and it is beautiful.
I
trust you; I praise; I rejoice; I am amazed as always by your love
I love
you Lord!
I
thank you for all the learning experiences; for the many wishes and desires and
know that you are in control.
And I
tell the old enemy that I don’t mind waiting because it will bring my father
glory.
Open
my eyes to see as you do Father, my ears to hear you more; my heart to love you
more and my whole being to know and live daily for you.
Indeed
you are a faithful and true God and all my hope is in you!
