Letting go is a choice; Letting God is the reward

Monday’s Message

Drowning in a sea
Full of insecurity 
What in life
Is really meant for me
Lord, please grant me peace
Would you be willing to die for Me?
Yes, of course
I fall onto my knees
Praying that You would wash these feelings off of me
Like blood staining white sheets
The misery of being lost
Caught in between
My God, it is too much for me
So I sink
Slowly letting go of the brink
Then water
No, heat
Encompasses me
As I lose my grip
You place me back on my two feet
and simply ask
                Would you die for Me?
and I contemplate the question
Searching for the lesson
Yet feeling unworthy
Of such a suggestion
Because what have I done?
What have I given
That is more than enough?
and the answer, dear friend
Is tough
For I constantly feel
Unworthy
Unloved
and the tears that I hold
In the back of my throat
Slowly release
As I slowly let go
and in Your arms
It is me you hold
Sweet, darling this is home
Where the wildflowers grow
As wild as you
Where the fields so green, so groomed
Full of laughter and endless room
To run
To scream
To let loose
You, sweet daughter
Have nothing to prove
The burdens you carry
So laden
You tarry
Can you hand those to Me
Then watch yourself die for Me
So simple
So easy
But the thoughts beneath your mind
Leave your windows so dingy
Open them wide
Letting the cool breeze inside
During all hours of the day
and beneath the moonlight
You will find a safe place
A star named
Just in case
You start to feel this type of way
Now darling let go,
Let loose of those reins
For today is a new day
A day that I, the Lord, have made
