Laying It Down

Laying It Down

A Poem by Nicole Schuster
"

Finding the LORD

"
Here I am, Lord
I'm giving myself to You
I've realized something
That I should have already known
That took me too long
And too much pain 
To figure out

I tried to do it all on my own
Thinking
If I told myself to be strong
I would be
And wouldn't need anyone else

But I was so wrong
So very, very wrong
I can't do this alone
I can't be alone
I need You, Lord
I need Your help
Please

I've come to know
That I need someone to talk to
To thank for my blessings
To confide in
When I mess up
To ask for a hand
To help me when I fall
And most of all
To guide me as I try to go on

Please, Lord
This is me giving myself to you
And an apology
For not seeing You
Hearing Your call
Sooner
Help me
To see You now
And as I go on
I want You
I need You
Please
Help me

Never found the need for religion. Had a mother that was very much a " you made your bed now lie in it" person that got by from grafting and never asking owt of anyone or thing.

^^ You expressed your feelings and thoughts wonderfully. I can really relate to this, and I think many can. We try to do things by ourselves but we need God to help, encourage, and guide us.

Great Job.
