Real Poem: Ashley Phillips - Moving Mountains

You are worthy of it all,
I trust you with my life
Though I may stumble and fall,
I am undeniably attracted to your light
Although my faith is tiny,
and my footsteps so small
You said “Mustard seed faith would move mountains.”
It doesn’t matter how tall
Sometimes my trust may come up short,
but your love and mercy never fails.
No matter what plans are waiting about,
I trust that you hold me in the palm of your hand.
I know that most times I tend
to trust only in myself; but,
This time I’m trusting you to be
my life, my plan, my wealth!
You never promised that this path you planned
would be the easy road,
you just said “To trust you to be
with us wherever we may go.”
So, this today is my simple prayer,
My undeserving plea….
That you would take my tiny faith,
and use it to put mountains in the sea!

~Matthew 17:20 says “He replied, “Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Ashley is a Senior who is so excited about what adventure lies ahead
next!!!
