My Eyes Are On You

Sometimes life gets heavy.

Really heavy.

We aren't sure how we can carry one more thing.

Well intended people share

"God wont give you more than you can handle"

I don't believe that.

He will.

He will stack it on

Higher and higher

Heavier and heavier

Until..

You have no choice

To bend

To break

To come to your knees

To hand all your troubles over

If you're like me you'll try to take back most of what is handed over throughout the day

As nightfall comes

I try again

I hand it over

When day breaks

I take it back again

I guess I like to try and prove how

Strong I am

I don't want to take it back

I want to leave it sitting at the feet of Jesus

and 

never look back and wonder if I should grab just one thing back

I don't want to carry it anymore

None of it,

but I can't help myself

I try anyways

The Lord is faithful to

Carry our burdens Psalm 55:22

Hear our prayers Psalm 39:12
To heal Psalm 103:3

To fresh starts Lamentations 3:23

To make all things new 2 Corinthian 5:17

And even though we like to prove how strong we are

We can stand on the promise

That He will carry us through 

Our darkest of days

Blessed is me...
