Stuck.
So deep in the dirt.
I have faith that I will sprout as a bountiful tree bearing fruit.
But I always end up trying on my own to grow and progress.
The Farmer, the FATHER, knows whats best when he drowns me in His water, He knows whats best for me when I get covered:
…in more dirt…mounds and mounds of dirt.
Wanting so hard to sprout, trying so hard to sprout.
Never losing faith, yet when I do things according to my own will…no progress.
So I pray father that you have your will, yet not my own, but yours be done.
Whatever you want to do with me to grow in the likeness of you, to grow towards you… do it.
A seed on its own doesn’t grow. It stays dormant, lifeless, alone.
But when the farmer, the FATHER to plant and nurture it, it will grow.
How do I learn to get over myself though?
All this surrender talk has given me hope…
Yet, I don’t think I fully understand.
