I was strong all by myself
Strong in the pain
Strong in the sorrow
Strong in the wilderness
Strong in the trials
Strong in the tiredness
Strong in the hate
I was Strong all by myself
Strong in the tomorrow
Strong in the temptations
Strong in the disappointments
Strong in the unknown
Strong in the unchangeable
Strong in anger.
Then I began to waver
I began to shake
I began to tremble
I told myself I needed no one
I could do this
I needed no man or woman
I will get myself out
I will get myself through this
But I realized I couldn’t
I was too weak
Too unstable
Very unhinged
Very fearful
Very vulnerableÂ
So I turned to Him
I pressed into Him
I cried to Him
And He came through for me
Then I thought…
How would He comfort me?
He cannot be seen!
He cannot be felt!
But He proved me wrong
He became tangible
He became real
His voice enveloped me
His presence devoured me
I was strong all by myself
But then I wasn’t
I never really was
The evolution of self and the discovery of God. Keep writing!
Thank you
