Underestimate Me

You say  I can’t understand

how you feel 

what you think

because you are different

based upon

                your prejudice that God

is a crutch

                a scam

                   a lie

Because I believe in God

I couldn’t know what you’re going through

I believe in God because I stood where you stand

except under your feet

I’ve been hungry and homeless

                abused and faced failure in each bottle I drank

I’ve been neglected, rejected and projected upon         

                to the point I’ve decided my life was too  burdensome

 I

  tried

   to

     end

        it.

He whispered and told me

my life, it’s not mine

     He promised me He’ll take me when it’s His time

I need Him because

YES

I AM

W   E     A        K

I see him in the glory and the gifts I have at present

but I see him most in the pain of my past

pushing me

pulling me

carrying me through

out of this darkness

to bring me to you

to tell you this:

   be broken

   be different

   be weak when you need to

I am living proof that His grace will sustain you

 

 

even if you don’t believe
