I Am Not My Own

I have put myself at risk, and regarded my life as low by holding it in my own hands and pretending that I know what is good and well for me, even when i could not see all the storms that lie ahead. Playing god, but fear i dread. I must have been a fool, only wise to his own eye; for no babe can nurse itself and is doomed to even try. If i say that I am strong than my weakness is my pride, and if i say that i can see then then i'm in most need of a guide. So I admit that I am weak but declare my God as strong, yes; i know that i lack much but in my God not all is gone. See ; i am a dead man without Him, but in Christ im dead to sin So since God sustains my youth, and He seeks spiritpraise and truth I wont lie and say "I am" . . . . I will say "He is, and can!!"
