Philippians 4:13 & Worthy

Philippians 4:13 1994 (age 22)
God, help me,
I can barely find the strength to breathe,
There is so much weighing on my soul,
And I fear this time it’s there to stay;
Give me strength, sweet Jesus,
I cannot do this without You;
I feel like I will fall if You let go,
Please hold me tighter,
I need You!
Don’t let me give up, Lord,
It would be so easy;
Don’t let me cease to believe in You,
For I feel my doubts are stronger than I am,
They are pulling me so hard,
I feel I am drowning!
O, Heavenly Father, save me,
Don’t let me lose sight of Your love,
Pull me up from despair;
Don’t let me give into disbelief;
Make me trust in You more;
I know I have pushed You away,
But I’ve always known I’ve needed You;
Let me come to You, dear Savior,
I feel I can no longer burden You,
But I need You once again;
I hope I will never stop needing You,
For without You I am weak,
But through Your strength,
I can do all things!

“I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.” – Philippians 4:13

Worthy 1994 (age 22)
I wasn’t worldly enough for Ami,
I didn’t drink, smoke, or dance;
Though once best friends,
We are now strangers in far away worlds

I wasn’t beautiful enough for RQ,
I yearned for him,
But I wasn’t important to him,
And my lips will never know the feel of his

I wasn’t dependent enough upon my mother,
I didn’t cling to her apron strings,
So my existence was ignored,
And my feelings were trampled

I wasn’t decisive enough for my father,
I couldn’t choose my future fast enough,
So he left me behind,
And cried bitterly when we parted

I wasn’t sinful enough for Jesus Christ,
I was too broken and afraid;
He only held me tighter,
And promised that I’d always be worthy in His sight

Is there a not enough for my sister stanza. I want you to know that YOU ARE more than enough for me. You are a beautiful creation of Christ and that is who we all should be!
