I Surrender

I SURRENDER

My God You read my thoughts...
You know what's in my heart...
You know my desires, my needs and  my wants;
You know what brings me happiness and sorrows;
You know everything about me.
More than me ever, I know you know me;
There are times I wonder why I need to experience these;
I wonder why You brought me to some places;
I wonder why...
There are times You answer me immediately..
Yet there are times I need to wait..
for a day, a month or years...
I am sorry sometimes I am impatient..
I am sorry sometimes I falter.
And sometimes I become depressed and anxious...
yet despite all these my Father God...
I am holding myself back..
I keep on reminding myself that 
You are bigger than anything..
That You are walking with me
and carrying me through all the way...
I know and I trust that in the silence..
You will speak to me;
You will calm my nerves;
You will understand my weakness;
You will give me peace.
And that you will direct me to where the best is....
I have my plans my Father God..
But..
I trust You..
I trust that Yours is better than mine..
I trust that Yours is best for me...
I do not have everything my Father God..
but its okey.. 
Only I ask...
That please give me more strength...
give me more wisdom...
give me more understanding...
give me more patience...
I thank You for everything..
I know that without You by my side..
I have been long down..
I have been all just a person without a will.
a person meaningless...
a person who is empty..
or at losS..
Thank You for searching me...
I know a lifetime will never be enough to thank You..
Nor what I have is enough to You..
But I trust that despite these,,
You will see me through..
You will still hold me through..
For I believe, You will see my heart...
Thank You very much..
I know and I trust that whatever is happening now..
You are in full control.
Hence, I am totally surrendering all to You.
For my life is within Your hands,
I surrender to You...

Tim Ryerson Date: 7/4/2014 4:09:00 AM Beautiful and compelling testament of your faith Olive. The hardest way to pray is to pray unselfishly and you have done so with this wonderful poem. To pray those four simple words from The Lord's Prayer "Thy will be done" and really mean it in my heart and soul is what I am trying to learn to do - Tim Login to Reply Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser Date: 7/5/2014 10:15:00 AM :) It's a prayer poem Tim.. As things now in my situation is somewhat unfair but I still I am holding to God.. I know these are all included for me to be better.. :)
