A reminder

I wrote this about a year ago and I can still identify with every word. Thought I would post it since I haven't written anything in awhile.


Truthfully I'm blind you see
Got a world of weight on my shoulders
Couldn't tell you where its coming from
Only distractions keeping me running from
Facing you, hearing your Voice

O strip away this numb feeling
Tell this voice to go away thats stealing
My joy

Material possessions clinging
To this world, but we're leaving
Everything behind, why
So much turmoil inside

Is it a costume I'm wearing
Trying to be something other than me
In control with responsibility
At best I am weak

And so this feelings'
Got me facing reality
I'm nothing you see
In the hands of Majesty
A king so great and so mighty
Holding me, indefinitely

And its here I find
My Abba's love for me
The costume disappearing
The weight transferring
Held now by hands that created the Universe
I find a new identity, defining me as His Child

No more costume wearing
Living up to others expectations,
Disparing

No I'm Jenny, your daughter
Experiencing, the all encompassing love of a Father
Forgiving, not judging me
Embracing, ever patient with me,
Never reluctant, always truthful,
Always kind, Listening to me
Full of mercy
This love I find
Indescriminately holding me
Forever
My daddy's hand in mine
