You say that I am called for greatness… while what I see around me is the opposite….
You say that I will change the world…. while I can’t even change my friends
You say that I will leave a legacy for generations to come…. while I see the next generation unwilling to keep the innocence I carry
You say that I will never have to worry…. while my worry became so large it turned into anxiety
You say that I am an example to those around me… while they hide from me when they “fail” to keep up
You say that I will see your glory, that I will see you move mountains… while I see the disfunction in the lives of those I love grow darker…
You say to have no fear…… while I’m so completely overwhelmed
You say to have faith….while what I see screams loudly in my face that it’s impossible
Though….
I can never forget that this world is the opposite of you… that’s why it’s so evident
I can never forget that only you can change people… that's why I’m meant to be a vehicle for that change
I can never forget that I live for generations I will never see… that’s why my generations will benefit from my innocence
I can never forget that you told me to cast all my anxieties on you… that’s why I’m meant to humble and surrender myself to be free
I can never forget that I am here to live a life that pleases you and not the people around me… that's why I’m not here to point fingers… I’m here to guide
I can never forget the things you have already done for those I love… that’s why I know that darkness has no power
