Lord I have so many days where I feel off balance
I look up to the sky and ask if you gave me any talent
I'm not spectacular and I don't stand out from the rest
So why is it each day I wake up to breathe another breath?
You've called on me so many times, but I lack the understanding
To realize and comprehend the power of this gift you were handing.....me
But I'm just a small vessel with a bit of a soft spoken voice
So out of these 7.5 billion people why did I have to be your choice
When it's time to speak up I feel like the early version of Moses
I stumble over my words, lose my train of thought and watch as my curtain closes
But you told me I had a purpose
I wasn't built to be the strongest, but you've blessed me with a strong will
You've given my life new meaning and sent me on a mission because I have duties to fulfill
And with these lessons you've instilled, in me
I promise to walk by faith, lose my sight and let you guide my feet
Down this narrow road where you've turned up the difficulty
Because the easy way out is the easiest way to get caught slipping by the enemy
So many people wanna drink, smoke, be promiscuous and more but I'd rather
Go to church on a Monday, Friday and Sunday because where there are 2 or 3 more will gather
So why is it so hard to step out our comfort zones
For the one and only God who brought to life some old dry bones
The God who restores our faith, helps us to put food on our plate
Blessed us in the heavenly realm, even with all the decisions we make
He called on us to be our brothers and sisters keeper
But how is it that we criticize their lives? Can we really call ourselves believers?
How can you see the splint in the eye of another and never see the tree in yours?
How are you condemning others, but walking in sin with your prayer life on pause?
We are to love one another as we love ourself, that's what Jesus taught
We are to uplift not tear down because there's only one judge in the court
I live my life with a transformed heart, body, mind and soul, with a new essence
Because I don't need no other body than the body of Christ that'll get me to heaven
Salvation isn't for the saved, but for those who need to enter God's lost and found
That's why we need to roam the streets and wage war against the devil before he leads more non-believers six feet into the ground
I'm a Soulja Boy in His army, so I crank that Gospel with the real Superman
Dragging all my brothers and sisters along the way so we can one day see the promised land
And when the devil and his cronies pull out all the stops on us to the point we feel overwhelmed
We gotta remember that our squad should trouble the throne for each other and body slam the devil in the spiritual realm
We have to fight the good fight of faith and free ourselves of this flesh
Because earthly possessions and God are 2 things that will never mesh
So I hold close to my heart this little scripture Matthew 16 & 26
Because I was so caught up in life, but I learned not to let any material things exist....
In my heart because my soul is worth more than silver or gold
And if I remain in Him I can watch all my blessings unfold
And If you think you need to have it all together, then you better believe that you're wrong
I can tell you about a few brothers in the bible that weren't always as headstrong
David was a murderer, Peter was a cusser, Thomas was a doubter
Paul was a Christian martyr, and I can go on but there's no more that I'd need to cover
And just how God works, in the most mysterious of ways
He sent His son to use so many sinners for His work even during His last days
This job isn't meant to be easy, and there'll always be trials and tribulations
But if you can get the point of this message you can hold your head up high and see the final destination
We're are all God's creations made in His likeness and image, His daughters and sons
Freed from sin because Jesus died on the cross so we wouldn't have to produce our own funds
And I'm hoping that for many of you this unlocks a new chapter in your life because in mine one has just begun
So all I'm asking of you now my dear brothers and sisters in Christ is for Each One to Reach One
