Know the Desires of My Heart

Life lessons learned through experience In an undesired fashion Learning to give up worldly ways To obtain a Godly passion My hearts desire was fulfilled For only a short amount of time Only after did I notice not all is good And worldly gain loses its prime My soul cries out for comfort Down my face tears graze All along I should've searched for the One By Trusting, Worshiping, and Praise My heart should be so full of joy And passion for my Savior That when a man comes into my life I know it's God doing me a favor I pray for strength daily Strength to know my worth and judge not For the only way to true happiness Is to seek what Jesus sought So I ask for God to motivate me To teach me patience, understand my thoughts With time I'll know to appreciate unanswered prayers Instead of examining the 'it oughts"
