Poem by Cheryl Hawkinson
I got this poem on a card from a member of my home church... It has been very fitting for how I have felt pushed and pulled by people who are passionate but don´t always stop to see if I am passionate for the same thing they are.
Sometimes it´s hard
to sing your own song
when everyone else
wants you to sing theirs.
People can be full of advice
about what you should do
and when you should do it, and where.
They usually mean well,
but nobody can know exactly
what is right for you-- except you.
So I don´t want to give you
advice you don´t need
I just want to say--
Have faith in yourself
(I would add trust that God is true to His promises.)
and listen to your heart.
Within you lies
some very special music
just waiting to be sung by you alone.
(I would add, that I have been blessed and God will use me in the world.)
