Faith

I wake up in the morning Determined to chase my dreams The moment I take a step towards success Reality hits me hard And it brings me down My weaknesses and flaws stand as an obstacle between me and my success I realize I am not good enough Desires of heart fade away Life seems to have lost its meaning Images of bleak Future flash in my mind I offer myself to God The Almighty gives me the strength to stand up once again The Creator leads me to the right path All Knowing God, protects me when I go astray He prepares me for struggles yet to come I will fight the fight I will run the race I will never give up I will accomplish His plans for me The Lord is my shield and my refuge I will sing praises to the Lord Serve and worship him forever

We wrote poems with the same title-- I can relate well to the struggles you so honestly portray-- we are all if fact 'broken', sinful, lost--every human who has ever lived--and like you, I find my strength of soul in the Lord. Congrats and may you and yours have a blessed 2020, Janet.
