“Missing Pieces”

The tongue has the power of life and death

Keep a guard on your mouth to see your best life yet

Seasons come and seasons go
Each season is an opportunity to grow

While it doesnt always feel good, the opportunities are there

You have to fill your vessel before you can share

Meditate on thoughts that are truth and worthwhile

Speaking life from your mouth, produces an inner smile

My confidence is not in myself, praise the lord

He reminds me everyday that while I’m broken I’m secure

Opposition makes you stronger, it’s a chance to grow

You either become bitter or better, the choice is yours you know

Life isnt always fair, surely I’ve been dealt a hard deck

At times I can’t reason or organize my brain, at least not yet

I’m okay with that, it’s just where I am
It’s where you end in life, not where you began

Continue to chose life daily, the choice is all yours

For me, it means running desperately to the lord

He is my provider, my safety in time of need

He hears my broken heart and questions, even while I bleed

The clouds are passing overhead, I can see the blue sky

For know I lay down my reasoning, my questions, my whys

At the end of our lives we will all give account

For what we have done with the gifts that he gave us, that’s what life is about

It may be mercy, compassion, or possibly teaching, writing or being someones ears

Own it, nurture it, show God that you care

Mine may look different than yours and that is okay

But chose life today, and meditate every day
