Confession

 Let me say

That everything 

In my life

Right now

Is great

And yet 

My soul

Grieves

I’m counting 

Gratitude 

That I can

Articulate this

I haven’t taken 

A breath

In years

Oxygenate

My lungs

Lord

I’m tired 

Of waking up

Exhausted 

Because 

My need for control 

Has superceded

My need

For You

  2. You are a very special blog friend, and I'm thinking of you this morning and sending love. Nature always brings me peace and puts things in perspective when I visit. Maybe you can spend a little time there and you will feel better. : )

  18. Truth - how often we wrestle with trying to control a situation, when if we give it to God, he resolves it perfectly, and often in a very short time!!
