Our Contentment in the Mess


We want it to be pretty

Our life a witness to success

We grumble with the curveballs

“Why me?!” our cries profess. 


We want it to be easy

Routines void of any stress.

We crumble at the hurdles

Wanting answers, not a guess.


We want it to feel safe

Where fear does not possess. 

Running from the worries

We doubt and we obsess.  


And as the enemy stirs the pot

In hopes we would regress

Jesus lifts the lid

Adding contentment to the mess. 


Our trust in Him outweighs

All the doubt that we profess

For Jesus is the answer! 

Our stillness in the mess. 


So in every situation

Lean on the One…He’s our yes.  

You see, He’s the only answer

To find peace in all this mess.
