My mind wasn’t focused on You
Like a leaf in the wind
It swirled and twirled
And got carried away
To wander in places of doubt
Coming to rest on the fence of indecision
Caught in the fear of unknown
Where it began to wither away
Without purpose
Until the force of Your divine breath
Caused it to stir, awaken, and break free
To soar to higher places
And sit in the heavenlies
At Your feet
Soaking in the truth of Your word
Now it’s a mind renewed
To do good works
And walk in Your Spirit on earth
It no longer wanders aimlessly
Blown by winds of uncertainty
For it awaits resurrection
Where it will live forever
On the tree of life.
