weakness

"But he said, ' My grace is sufficient for you: my power is made perfect in your weakness' ..."
2 Corinthians 12:9

My soul, wait silently for God alone,

For my expectation is from Him.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense;
I shall not be moved

Psalm 62:5-6

"The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship."
Psalm 19:1
misunderstood or maybe just mistaken,
but never sorry for that day.
When I let him go.

I fell to my knees and praying for peace.
To me he had to suffer for my mistake,
Deep somewhere under all those memories we made,
I knew he couldn't stay

Was it weakness or strength that made me turn away...
I can't wish away the pain, I am the only one to blame

Hearts crack before they break
Cracked by the weight of all the memories that told me he couldn't stay
Why look for value in a man who will never love you the right way.
I know now am not my own to just give away

Now I have to live with the pain
 and explain to others why he couldn't stay.
But take it from me sweet one 
Its worth the wait.

I now have peace about that dark day.

Humbled I confess
who I am, I am that wretch
Down on my knees 
I say once more,
Be with me my blessed Lord

My brokenness I cannot hide
weaknesses become my greatest pride
now marked by you in all I do 
be glorified, Lord take my life

Your promises I don't deserve 
My value is now found in your infinite worth 
Draw me close, close to your side
nowhere else satisfies

Praise you, for my emptiness 
you know how long it took me to confess
My way is empty a vain pursuit
to put anything else before you

Here and now, everyday renew my sight
show me your way, I seek your light
You paid my debt with the greatest price
forevermore Lord use my life 



                                       No guilt in life, no fear in death,
                                                This is the power of Christ in me;
                                                From life's first cry to final breath.
                                                Jesus commands my destiny.
                                          No power of hell, no scheme of man,
                                                Can ever pluck me from His hand;
                                                Till He returns or calls me home,
                                                Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
