Thank You

for the stressful situations

that drive me to You.

 

     I hate the stress

     and the angst.

     The way my mind dwells on it

     and I can’t refocus.

     The way I’m still thinking of it

     when I wake in the middle of the night.

 

But I love

the way it shoves me to my knees.

The way it reminds me

that You are the one

Who is in control of my hours and my minutes.

Of my future

 

     You’ve got me

     and You love me.

     Nothing else matters.

 

You see tomorrow.

 

     Help me to muddle through today

     in a way that brings You glory.

     It’s not about me.

     It’s always only about You.

 

So thank You

for the stressful situations

that drive me to You.
