How beautiful must you be
so you can see yourself as beautiful?
How smart must you be
so you find the confidence to say
that you have it in you
to succeed
How much studies must you undertake
how many certificates and titles must you acquire
how many languages
how many skills
how excellent
how fast
and how creative
so you can find the security to say
that in this fast
and changing world
you are doing well
and that you are at par
with the rest
who are trying so hard
as you do
trying to please
trying to excel
trying to be the very best
where the very best
could not be found
among those who try
to be the best.
It is never enough
It never will be enough
for true confidence
could not be found
in the exaltation of the self
or in the perfection we desire
but which eludes us the more
the more we try to grasp it
Only in Jesus
do we find rest
only in Him
do we find
the strength
the purpose
and the power
to accomplish
all things
for the perfect good
of all.
Find hope in your darkest hour.
