Abba Father :
I wanted to give up today.
Plea with You to take me away.
It was hard not to give up.
Hard to sip from this bitter cup.
But I prayed instead for You
To bless me in what I do.
And Your grace was sufficient.
Your love was magnificent.
So for today I didn’t give up
I drank again from the bitter cup.
Outside the rain has pounded down,
Lightening has struck all around.
You held me secure in You arms,
So I forgot all passing harms.
Thank You Lord,
Amen
