When I was just a little girl,
my Mom would ask to help me.
I’d say, “No, me do it meself!”
I haven’t changed much, you see! 

First, I usually do it myself,
BEFORE I give it to Him!
You’d think I’d have already learned
to FIRST let go of them! 

I struggle, I worry, and I fret,
to the point of being ill!
When I should know inside that
my needs are in His Will!

 Just a little notion here,
to carry you through the day…
if all el
se seems to fail,
you might d
ecide to pray!!!
