Your Will Be Done
Open hands lifted
Tired fingers reaching
Trembling arms hoping
To feel some comfort, Oh Jesus
Some ease, some fullness
Worn from daily toil
Tasks of simplicity and
My mind never quite grasping,
The answers that SHOULD already be
There it is...
Should
And all the other pressures
I have placed upon myself
And find surprisingly hard to cast off
I have heard, learned, known
That truth brings freedom
And yet often pain.
And so with open hands lifted
Surrendering to the pain
To the process
Once again
Tired fingers reaching
For yours.
I whisper
'Your will be done.'

I love this - when I read the bible it's so eye opening as to how many things we have learned of what we should do or are important aren't what Jesus showed was important. People matter, people are important. Love is above all other gifts and talents. If you have love you know God because he is love. Xo
