The I Am Can

God you know me

You made my body whole

You knew my story

Before it was ever told.

You brought all the good in my life

And you allowed the bad.

Sometimes its hard to reconcile

The ways my story is sad.

Sometimes I want a mom

For their tender love and care

But the reality is I have one

But she’s not there.

She can’t be there for me

Too sick for herself

The damage from her lack of love

For a lifetime will be felt.

Somehow you take this bad

And you use it for good.

You’ve taken this part of my story

And given it to a man nailed on wood.

I hear whispers from the Holy Spirit saying

“Give it all to me.

Let me take her place.

I’ll be all you need.”

I tell him of my fear

That I’ll fail my kids the way mine failed me

He says “My Child,

I’m all you need.

Abide in my life

And my strength each day

And I will give you

All you need to do or say.

You’re not alone

I’m always there.

I made you with love and care.

It wasn’t an accident

No mistake was made.

Her leaving made you

Who you are today.

This world isn’t perfect

Its filled with people in sin.

But the ‘I Am.”

Is where perfection begins.

The sins of others

Can cut so deep.

But there is no part of you

That’s too much for me to keep.

So let go my child

I hold you in my hands.

She can’t.

But the ‘I Am’ can.”T
