One

Self evaluation

"

 

They say its strength in numbers, well I only believe in the power of one

If I built it then I’ll face it and I’ll break it

I saw it took a deep breath and placed my hands against it and I push

Carved in the wall were all of my sins from end to end

The wall barely budged as I began

 

Pictures of passed on love ones appear as I push and push harder

Took a step back and placed my hands securely where now lied my insecurities

Every one of them on the wall, they are beautifully written, though I keep them so beautifully hidden

So blessed no one else sees this wall but me, maybe they do and pretend to be blind to spear me

 

This wall symbolizes the pain and heartache over the years

My body aches so I push harder because there is no turning back, no need for tears

If Christ can carry the cross I can push this measly wall out of my way?

Not glorifying myself but not selling myself short either

 

If I am HIS child why shouldn’t I believe in the power of one?

I f I believe in my Father and I’m his son then I’m prepared for anything

As the cuts on my palms get deeper and deeper and the blood flows down

I drop to my knees and push through the pain, I push through the pain cause I’m no where done

 

A voice in the darkness says “I’ll be your light and your strength, Let Me take over”

I look up take my hands off the wall and say “yes you can takeover I am done”

No longer do I push alone because He is my Father and I’m his son, we are indeed one

They say its strength in numbers, well I only believe in the power of one
