The Purpose

Why not me? I was chosen for a purpose that hasn't been revealed Should I sing, Should I write or maybe even heal Who am I? Just an average girl, Who can't find her place in this world But why me? I wasn't sent here for impending doom God knew me when I was in the womb My heart is big and full of love The breath I take came from above What can I offer? Wisdom, encouragement maybe a prayer Healing hands, a song or maybe just share I didn't ask to be here but it was in His plan To fulfill a purpose and help where I can I don't know why I'm here and deserve all of this I guess it's to fulfill God's mission and the purpose

I totally understand where you're coming from. I struggle trying to find my purpose too. Hopefully, it will be revealed to both of us. Have a great Sunday.
