Fallibility

Fallibility,
I'm not perfect,
Nor super in any way,
Fully aware of weaknesses,
Yet running this race,
Limp and all,
Just trying to love You.

Fallibility,
Balance?
Don't want to abandon You,
Can't abandon books either,
2 CGs, 2 Committees, 1 CF, 1 church, 1 Community service,
So many Cs,
Will I choke?
Bitting more than I can chew?

Fallibility,
Rest is not optional,
Exhaustion can kill,
The passion.
Tiredness can blind,
The difference between
Obligation and willingness.

Fallibility,
Don't want to put programs
before people.
Don't want to emphasize,
Numbers before substance.
Don't want to equate being busy
with being effective.
Don't want to touch everything,
yet feel nothing.

Fallibility,
I am.
You're not.
Teach me.
Pick me up.
Sustain me.
Surprise me.
Delight me.
I need You.

Fallibility,
Echoes David,
"Though I stumble,
I will not fall,
For You hold my hand."
I plead,
Hold it tight.
I rest assured,
You have and will.
Forever.
