Does your dream coincide or collide with His will for your life?

Grasping
Fingers clasping
Holding on to something
Like it’s all or nothing
But is that something
Worth lusting
When we cannot control His forthcoming?

We love like we are going to lose
But what is it you are holding on to?
Those nice shoes, new boots, glass-paned office with a city view?

We can’t recall a word from our Sunday School verse
Yet we know every word and lyric to that new rap song; soover rehearsed
What are we truly putting first?

Our wants and desires
Our dreams, yes they’re fine
But have you given Him a second of your time?
Does your design coincide
With His will for your life?

Stop for a second
Amidst all the moving
And think about what you truly are doing
Is it for you or for others?
Who do you turn to when the pressure smothers?

The pressure to be all you can be
The pressure to live up to a false reality
Girl, can’t you see?
He created you to love and He loves you immensely
You are His and that’s all you need

Let go of the need to be all or nothing
Just believe what you are doing is already something
Something He has planned that is beyond what you can see
Your happiness and success is not always the key
You must decrease & let life be

This messy, roller coaster reality

“He must increase, but I must decrease” John 3:30
