Nothing Compares To What You Give

Did you ever want something so bad 
you can taste it?
But nothing compares to what God is giving you and will give you
His gift is so awesome
and will just surprise you
I have given up on wanting something
Because I realize that nothing I want can compare to what He gives
when He gives it
God You are so awesome
And I don't know what to say about You
You surprise me at times and always
God who is like You?
Nobody
And You stay the same in my book
And yet I can never figure You out
Why is that God?
I can never hold You up to some standards
You have broken them all
Bursting through them like a football player going for that final touchdown
Except yours are not final
It's indefinite
God how can I say enough things about You?
I am not going to even try
Just know that some are thinking of You and that's including Me
Bless You God
for being a good trooper and always understand
I know I can be hard to live with
I'm definitely not easy to work with
But You got it God
And that's a plus for You
in Your favor
But are they all in Your favor? ha

This is God's response to you. My daughter, you shine so brightly before me like a gentle breeze across a cool Autumn morning. You sparkle where ever I send you and I have sent you to so many places. Continue to shine where I have planted you and I will water and fertilize every seed that you have dropped. I am your Savior. I am your Friend. Jesus! :)
