Glimpse

If this is what I can accomplish

with the strength and courage I lack

I wonder the things I could do,

if I didn’t let fear hold me back

 

What if I no longer fed my fears and doubts?

Fed my faith instead

How much further would I be ahead

 

What dances I’d dance

What songs I’d sing

What poems I’d write

If I freed the warrior within

 

I’ve seen what I could do

with fear stirring in my chest

I’ve seen victory

I’ve seen success

 

Still I don’t think I’ve done my very best

Fear hindered my walk, stole my happiness

It stopped me from going too far

From reaching for the farthest star

 

I go only as far as I feel safe to go

But what if I didn’t do that anymore?

What if I took a chance?

Thread the scary path

 

Did the dance

Laugh the laugh

I’ve seen a glimpse of what I could do

If the champion in me made her debut

 

Imagine the great things I’d accomplish

if my body, soul and mind I’d renew

Imagine the dreams that’ll come true

 

His Word:

¹³ I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Philippians 4:13 NKJV
