"The Gift"

 

Dove by Inspired Graphics Tech

Yesterday I yearned for worldly
goals and pleasures
with discontent and impatient
groans and measures.

Grasping tight to steer events
and maintain complete control,
For I just knew what was best for me,
where God wanted me to go.

Crying because this emptiness
will not go away
until I reach my hearts desires,
"It must be right now" I'd say.

Day after day I'd stir up discontent
among myself and friends,
so then, they too, had emptiness
and worldly loose ends.

Today I lost my life, in exchange,
for a Glorious Endeavor!
with heavenly goals and pleasures
that will surely last forever.

Now my life is in control
not swerving, crashing, or standing still
Now God can bless me better than myself,
with desires that fulfill.

There's no room for emptiness,
not even one little bit,
I still don't see everything right away,
but my faith will never quit.

I can't wait to share this awesome gift with you, 
if you don't have it already.
For only God, His Son, and the Holy Spirit
can truly keep you steady.

God is so big and full of love,
there's nothing, nothing bigger than Him.
So please won't you lose your life today,
plant the seeds of blessings within.

These pages were prayerfully made and I am thankful for God's leading
and that "He is still working on me."  being confident of this,  that he who has begun
a good work in me will carry it on to completion until the day of Jesus Christ.
