Ever find yourself sitting with a feeling of self pity?
Ever wonder why you’re dull while others seem so witty?
Can you see others’ paths clearly, while you’re lost in space?
Can you find yourself gripping a mirror staring at your face?
Do you see success, or do you see all the flaws?
Can you imagine a King on His throne as He draws…
on His template, the very image of your face.
Every line, every curve He put into place.
“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee” His words ring true
“For I know the plans I have for you”
“My thoughts are not your thoughts,” saith the Lord.
“Neither are My ways are your ways,” “…great is your reward.”
“I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee”
“You’ll always be enough…take up your cross and follow Me”
Yep, I’ve been all those things. Those things didn’t look so good because I was looking at me. So grateful that God grabbed my heart, turned my eyes unto my Creator, and showed me what Truth looks like.

The thoughts expressed in this poem are so relatable. I think we all can learn from Psalm 139, just how much God knows us and loves us in spite of our flaws. Thanks for your words.
