Maybe, Possibly, 50% Yes

I’m afraid.

I’m afraid of the plan that God has for me.

God has big things in store for me.

He is going to ask me to do things

That will seem impossible.

He will ask me to conquer mountains

That no one else is willing to climb.

But I’m afraid.

I’m afraid of those mountains.

I’m afraid of the people and places

He will have me face.

I’m afraid of being looked up to.

I’m afraid of the influence that He

is already giving me.

How can a 16 year old do big things?

When I think of all the things that

My Father is going to have me do I am

Afraid.

When I compare how small I feel with

The size of my future it seems impossible.

What can I really do to make a difference?

When I think of the future my two thoughts are

“Yeah right.”

and

“How?”

I know that God has bigger

Plans for me that I have for myself.

But why me?

This question seems to resound in my mind.

Why

Me?

God is going to ask me to do big things.

He is going to ask me to climb

Mountains that no one else will

And that all others have been blinded to.

He will ask me to stand out.

He IS asking me to stand out.

So here I am.

Elizabeth Grace-Marie.

It seems like I’m at the

Starting Line,

But I know that I’ve already

Been running the race for quite some time.

But it will not be running on flat ground any longer.

It will be bumpy.

At some points the hills will be so steep

That I will be out of breath.

But alas there is always a downhill slide

From a climb.

So from now on,

Instead of saying,

Maybe,

Possibly,

50% Yes,

My answer will be,

Here I am.

Send me.

I am 17 years old and I love to laugh. I strive each day to live my life for Christ and this blog is a compilation of some of the things I have learned. Romans 12:12 says, "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." This verse has been something for me to stand by these last few years and I hope it is for you too.
