Answers and Assurance

All stripped down,
My possessions lost,
Who am I?

I am Your child.
You love me just the same,
Unwavering and unconditional.

Distracted and faithless;
Service halfhearted,
What have I forgotten?

I am Your servant
You have privileged me.
Help me serve You zealously.

Unfaithful and inconsistent.
A shameful effort.
When will I learn?

I am Your disciple.
You have called me.
Enable me to follow You daily.

Pondering what’s to come,
Confused and anxious.
Where is my help?

I am Yours.
You pave my life,
You hold my future in Your hand.
