Trust

Trusting is not an easy thing

when one of your earliest memories

is coming home,

seeing open boxes everywhere

and not knowing if your father was staying there

or going someplace else,

escaping 

from the chains,

needing to be set free.

Saying that my childhood was unstable

is greatly understating,

picturing a little girl waiting and waiting

for her daddy to come back home,

sure she had done something wrong

because they told her so.

But now I've been born again,

I have a new life.

I'm a wife

to a godly man

who understands

what it's like to be falsely accused,

battered and bruised.

Stepping out in faith 

into the unknown

is impossible to accomplish on your own.

You need Jesus by your side,

guiding you through life.

Let Him make the choices,

because He is the only one who knows

what lies on the road ahead.

He'll pick you up when you fall

carry you when there's no strength left, none at all.

Follow His light,

lean towards the right,

trust in Him

and His sight.

Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
