I'm not good at sticking
to what I know is right
I'm not even good at
letting go sometimes
I usually don't continue
on the right path
I usually give up
when I feel I've lost
I usually struggle
when the signs are in front of me
I even ignore the ones who love me
The Angels whisper
but I turn my ear
God is telling me
that I'm almost there
I cry out in protest
because
I convince myself
the pain is unbearable
But I'm wrong
I know I'm strong
I just don't give myself
enough credit
I know I don't have to suffer
that everything is for the higher good
Today
I don't feel so wishy washy
when it comes to holding on
I'll make it to the end
I see the light
the race is on
and I'm not putting up a fight
My eyes
are finally open
I don't need to be saved
by another man
For I'm running towards Jesus
and in his arms
I'll fall
because I'm not meant
to take on this world
all on my own

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Kristen, your testament is music to my ears! If only more people came to those realizations, the world would be a much happier place!

A beautiful flow from your soul! Keep the faith  ! ~ in God and in yourself!

Love & God's Light,

I agree with James, this is wonderful. And touching. Indeed we are never alone and this awareness brings such peace!
