I cant think of a title! :)

FRUSTRATION
Why do I let them bring me down?
Why do I let them tear me down?
Why do I let them kick me and drag me?
Why do I let them walk all over me and take advantage?
Why do I surrender to them?

I know that they shouldnt influence who I am
I know what is right, I know what God desires from me
I know that I am to be light in darkness
I know I should be Him with flesh
I know who I am with Him

But people try to blow out that light
People try to take Him out of me
People try to break me
People try to make me surrender
People try to make me weak

The fight is hard
The fight to who I want to be, who He wants me to be
The battle is never ending
Sometimes I feel like I am in a battle without a sword
Im in the fight but knocked out

PEACE
And then I remember he is my sword
He is my shield
Hes not my tag in while in the ring
But the one fighting the fight for me
that He already won

He will never let my light go out
He will never leave me nor forsake
He will protect and guide
He will shield and protect
He will stand with me, next to me and for me
He will be my strength
He will be my strong tower
He will save me
He will love me
He will demonstrate His power through me
He will demonstrate His love through me
He will demonstrate His joy through me
He will make straight my path
He will make a way
He will not surrender
He will not give up or give in
He will not lose
HE WILL!

Explaination: After a long, stressful week I knew that I needed to release some tension. I called my sister and vented like crazy and yes that helped some. I thought about getting a margarita but knew that this frustration wouldnt go away with a drink. I tried watching the office (it makes me laugh) but nope. I honestly tried to pray but my frustration was getting in the way (if that makes sense). My frustration I knew would turn to anger. Lately people have taken advantage of me. I let people walk on me. I allow to let people determine my self worth. So I began to write and whatever came out came out. It was amazing the change of my attitude in a matter of 15 minutes. I went back and added colors that I felt displayed my emotions and change in my emotions and added titles to the sections. And this is what we get.
I am no longer frustrated and at peace (for now :) ) I wasnt going to post this but maybe it will help someone else when they get frustrated and it might help me to read it later!
