What Do I Do?

Your word says in my weakness You are strong.

But what do I do when I have nothing left to carry on?

Your word says you choose me, that You’ll never forsake me.

But what do I do when who I am is not someone I want to be?

Your word says all things work together for my good.

But what do I do when pain stands where love once stood?

Your word says I was made in Your image.

But what do I do when all I see is damaged?

Your word says to treat everyone as I treat myself.

But what do I do when I’m harder on me than anyone else?

Your word says I’m forgiven, that I’m made a new creation.

But what do I do when the old me is still going through destruction?

Your word says let go, that You’ll step in.

But what do I do when anger always seems to win?

Your word says to cast all my worries on You.

But what do I do when sharing my worries feels selfish to do?

Your word says You are my shield and my sword.

But what do I do when I’m the evil it should be pointed toward?

Your word says be strong, be courageous, and bold.

But what do I do when I’m met with heartache and pain everywhere I go?

Your word says I’m saved by grace, not the things I do.

But what do I do when every day feels like a fight for what’s true?

Your word says You speak in a still small voice.

But what do I do when my mind is filled with worldly noise?

God, I need You; You are the only one who’s true.

My soul is Yours, Lord; please make me anew.

I seek You, Abba; my heart is Yours alone.

Jesus, hold me tight… until the day You bring me home.
