    you give and take away

    You give and take away..
    my heart will choose to say
    Lord, blessed be Your name...

    the world's hardest words to say when God takes away things from you..
    or worst, the things that you love..

    but yet.. when we choose to say, Lord blessed be Your name..
    you will come to realise there is more than just a declaration..
    it is totally obedience and surrender to His will..

    sometimes, there are situations and problems that we just don't understand why it is there..
    and we might end up asking God.. why did He give up this problem to go through it....?

    sometimes, it might simply just be our consequences of certain decisions on something... and therefore, we had to go through it..

    but there are times, when it is because God wants us to go through it..

    i hate what i am doing now..
    i hate what i am feeling now..
    i hate how i am responding to certain issues now..
    i hate it all..

    but why?...
    why do i need to go through it..
    why do i need to accept all these..
    the pressure is building up...

    am i swimming on God's lifebuoy?
    am i depending on Him?

    i have all the answers to these...
    but what am i doing about it?...
    i dunno how long more i can take it
    but as i take it..
    i really hope to say..

    You give and take away..
    my heart will choose to say
    Lord, blessed be Your name...
