Strong Enough

6:10 PM 10/2/2013




I'm struggling

And I'm hurting

And I'm worn and
tattered and torn

And I'm
slowly
beginning
to give in

And I am just
not as strong
as I had been

Because I'm numb and truly
shaken with everything
that's going on
in every single direction

And I feel like I'm drowning
deep
into the depths of the ocean

Because I am slowly suffocating

And I'm tired
of  
this feeling

Because there is a part
of me that
feels like I'm losing

This battle that I'm fighting

Especially with the way
that things are unraveling

Without another option
and
no where else to turn

And I know that these feelings
that I'm having
are just a momentary situation

And they should all pass soon

Yet my patience is wearing thin

That's why I've got to hold on through
the storm
and continue to keep my faith strong

Because I just cant let the devil win

Not for as long as I
am
alive and breathing

Because the good Lord is my
rock
but he is also my salvation

And I know with all of my heart that
I can count
on him to get me through everything

But in the mean time until
he does
I have to continue praying

That the good Lord will intervene
soon
but not in my time but in his own

And I just hope and pray
that I can stay
strong enough until then

And thats why I cant begin to
give up
or even think about giving in

Even when I am feeling so broken and torn
and struggling and hurting like I've been

Because one thing I can count on as I always
have and always will is that the good Lord
will make me stronger than I have ever been
