I’m tired and restless. I feel like I’ve pushed myself way beyond what I thought I could. I’ve tried my best – yet it’s just not enough.
Until I remember you…
The works of my hands are futile. My thoughts and ideas are lame. Nothing seems to be right and everything inadequate. Giving up seems to be the best option, if not, the only option.
But I remember you…
I’ve let go of my passion. I abandoned my dreams. I clammed up when people misunderstand what I do. I held back the words I want to say. I closed my eyes when I couldn’t bear it anymore.
Then I remember you…
I feel I’m wiser now; choosing what to say and what to keep. I believe I’m more trusting now; less worried and anxious about tomorrow. I think I’m more patient now; understanding and giving him/her the benefit of the doubt.
Until I remember you…
I remember You; who made the world, sun, moon and stars; who is in-charge of everything I see, hear, smell, touch, think, say and imagine; who designed me-my purpose, my thoughts, my words, my works, my struggles, my pains, my joy, my relationships.
I remember my Maker, my Designer, my Orchestrator, my Redeemer, my Master. And I’m reminded that everything that happened to me came from You. All I’ve become is because of you and now, all I’ve got will be for You.
I remember you because you first remembered me…
“Taste and see the goodness of the Lord. How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!” – Psalm 34:8
