Another year on this planet,
Probably didn’t go as I planned it.
I work and I study,
Just trying to earn some money.
Getting so consumed in my life,
Doing whatever I can to survive.
Days and weeks so busy,
Life is the opposite of ‘easy’.
While we try to follow Jesus,
The worldly issues consumes us.
Though you may find yourself alone,
He calls you His very own.
Tears were shed,
Left broken-hearted.
Some people I’ve lost,
In others, I now trust.
Everything happens according to God’s plan,
Don’t doubt him ‘cos He created mankind.
There’s a constant fight with the Devil,
On my shoulder is my guardian angel.
God helps me fight the battles,
Just as He did for his apostles.
He provides and guides,
From Him, I can’t hide.
He places me in situations,
That affirm my foundations.
Blessed to do things I’d never thought I’d do,
He followed through, and rescued.
I stepped out of my comfort zone,
Celebrating my milestones.
Shyly, I preached my very first sermon,
Not shy to share my religion.
Experiences where I was tested,
Allowed God and I to grow connected.
I’ve learnt so much,
Because of His touch.
Another year is about to start,
To Him I give my mind, soul and heart.
Use me as your vessel,
Help me seek your counsel.
We give you, Jesus Almighty,
The year Twenty Twenty.
