There have been a lot of things happening lately in my life. Good and bad things. When I say bad, really I mean, things that aren't going my way. You see, I think I have everything under control and tend to forget, quite often, that I do not control anything. Then, sure enough, God humbles me and so I find myself right back at the feet of Jesus pouring my heart and soul to him.
With that being said, I have picked up writing here and there. I write in a journal. Sometimes it's prayers. Sometimes it's just what has been going on in my life. Sometimes it's prayer request. Sometimes it's praises. And sometimes, its poetry. Very rare is it poetry. I tend to write poetry when I am sad or have faced a life lesson. It helps redirect my focus on the One I am supposed to be focused on. So here is the latest poetry entry! Hope you enjoy!
"You know my deepest sorrows and my heart's desires.
Help me trust your resounding power.
You alone control my life and will.
When my plan doesn't work, I will love you still.
I know life is one big trial and test,
but knowing you gives me rest.
Help me not to fix my eyes on the loss.
Instead, help me lay it all at the cross."
Stay Salty,
Annie
