Sometimes your strength is taken for granted
Others think,” she’ll be okay she is firmly planted”
Expecting you to dust yourself off and move on
Saying, “She will get through it, she is so strong”
Its beliefs like this, that make others forget I’m human too
I’m unraveled inside , broken through and through
Yes I put on my brave face to make it through the day
I’m trying to survive, I’ve got nothing to say
Yes God is my strength, he gives me grace to endure
He is my place of safety when I feel insecure
It’s times like this where you evaluate what you value most
Shifting things around in my heart and reprioritizing relationships, I do both
What matters at the end of everyday to me, is how I treat others
My husband, closest friends, brothers and sisters in christ, and my mother
At the end of it all, when I stand before God, I long to hear “Well done”
“You reflected my character, and the battle is won”
Heaven is such a mystery when we view it from afar
Make no mistake about it, God knows just where we are
We are instructed in Psalms to seek peace and to pursue
Having said it’s my responsibility to set boundaries, to make it through
Part of that lesson comes at a cost
Letting go of what I thought was real, now I realize is lost
At the end of the day, I’m responsible for me
All of these lessons I’m learning are setting me free
Growing pains are real, it’s like your being stretched
Some friendships you carry on, while others you forget
Like giving birth to myself and rediscovering me
Allowing myself permission to let go and just be me
While God carries me through, we cooperate together
I sit and listen for his wisdom, through the rough and rainy weather
His word is my weapon, I confess what is true
Sharper than any 2 edged sword, God I simply lean on you
IN DEEP WATERS
