I surrender My Gift
to Him who set me free.
I will follow His precepts
and light the way for me.
I thought I’d find happiness
in things I could buy,
but soon came to realize
they had left me dry.
I worked long and hard
and reached goals with pride,
but when I arrived,
I felt empty inside.
I then sought fame and fortune
to find peace and joy,
but the cost was My Gift,
it nearly destroyed.
So My Gift I surrender,
to Him who created me;
I will follow His leading,
till His face I see.
– – – written by Milton L. Delgado
That’s a wonderful poem by Milton. Lord help us to surrender ourselves to you completely. Amen.
