Poem

I still need to update a lot of things that has happened before this, but I wanted to put up a poem that I wrote about what God taught me this week.

Dear God

By: Victoria Marie McGahey

Your trying so hard to teach me to trust you,
And that is something I do want to do,
It is gonna be hard though I don't know why,
I mean you love me so much you chose to die.
Why do I fear that you don't want my best?
Even so much that I would protest,
Stop in my track, complain, and whine,
Trying to run from your design.
Yet why I try to do it my way,
It always ends up that day after day,
I fail and fail and fail again,
Till I can stop and confess my sin,
From here on out this life is yours.
I throw away my hurt and sores,
Put my life in your hands
No longer make my own demands.
I will learn to rest in your will,
Feel peace in your plans and not fear the hill,
Mountains, valleys, and streams I will cross,
For you make it my gain and never a loss.
And as I commet my life to you,
I feel a peace refreshing and new,
I just can't wait to see you in action,
To fill my life with satisfaction,
That it was lived to bring you praise,
Every second of all my days.
