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.
