Person is more fragile than she appears
I do not present as weak
And I refuse to be defined as helpless
I fight, claw and crawl to remain afloat
Which has been mistaken for innate strength
Yet
I have never rescued myself
I take no credit for any of my victories
It has only been the love of my heavenly Father that has carried me this far
At my lowest points He has reminded me
that I am never alone
And that His strength is made perfect
In every one of my weaknesses
It's because of God
who lives in me that
I have been able to stand tall even when
the strength has left my knees
It's this reason that those around me
believe that I am okay even when
I'm on the brink of drowning
I turn to Him
He guides me to safety
And presents me as strong.
