On My knees

In the place of prayer

When I fall on my knees

My life is changed

My purpose changed sometimes redefined

Some changes made, I wasn’t excited about

But you asked me to trust

You gave me your word to hold on to.

You told me your best was better than anything I could ever imagine

Better than what I was holding on to.

When I grew weary, beyond weary

You gave me more of your word

You assured me I wasn’t seeking you in vain.

I asked where the proof of my faith is,

And you said

Hold on, Wait on, don’t let go.

And on my Knees, I found strength

If your strength fails in the day of adversary, then you’ve been sleeping, waking, eating and playing

You’ve not been building your strength
