I SURRENDER!
Late night phone calls
Fist fights and tongue brawls
I surrender all
Hurtful words
Such as disrespectful, nouns, pronouns and verbs
I surrender all
Impure thoughts
Lying trying to avoid getting caught
I surrender all
So GOD, here I am!
Broken, beaten and full of despair
My faults, I can no longer hide, I now realize and now begin to care
Make me, change, me, love me forgive me
I come to you, arms out and heart open
And all I can say is, "I SURRENDER ALL!"

Love it! I definitely remember those days of the "late night" phone calls, impure thoughts, hurtful words, fist fights, but when I was in it I couldn't see that I was surrendering to the wrong person. But now, that I have surrendered all to the Lord, I am much happier and at peace, because I have someone who truly loves me unconditionally, it i s not easy, but it is 200% times better than that mess I was in. I am always in awe of how God makes a way out of no way and provides a way of escape. We just have to know when he is telling us we need to run and not look back.
So many times we have surrendered to the wrong person. When the right one was patiently waiting, watching the whole thing.
Jennifer, this is a beautiful piece. Very Potent!!!
Thank you everyone for the love... I wrote this because after years of struggling within my self i now realize that in order for things to " get Better" I need to stop trying to control them... So the only way to do that is to totally surrened to GOD... And watch him move
He is so merciful. He is always there with open arms, to take us back. And he still blesses us, in spite of all of that...He never ceases to amaze me.
