I wrote this spoken word not too long ago. I'm slowly learning that life isn't about me. that the universe doesn't revolve around me. God doesn't owe me anything, but when i trust in him, he will take care of me. I am blessed.
-It's Not About Me-
When will I understand
that my life isn’t in my hands…
That it’s not about me!
That it’s nothing that I, -myself can be
It’s something that I cannot grasp
all I can do is hold fast
…to love
It’s not about me, you see
It’s about bigger things,
more important things;
Because my life can be gone in an instant.
Instantly I can be
…gone and distant
Life is but a mist
And in the midst of it all
…I can be taken away
Here today, but gone tomorrow
So I must chose wisely -to what I will follow
You see, the bigger things, the more important Things
The things I need to see
Is that it’s not about me
… but the King
The King who sits on his throne
And he’s all alone
… longing for his people
He’s begging for them to change
To change their hearts -and love him.
Love only him.
But in their hearts they refuse to part with the things not of the king.
…And just like it’s not about me…
It’s not about you, too
It’s not about anything that WE can do
But only about what HE can do
It’s about what He can do through me
…And through you
When we set ourselves aside, can he truly shine
It’s time to realize that it’s not the things that we can do
But what the King can show His glory through
