I am...

I am a tryer and a doer.

I wonder why I have been blessed so much.

I hear children singing praises to God and giggling all day long.

I see God smiling.

I want to be a child again and bless His heart.

I am a tryer and a doer.



I pretend that I'm a kid sometimes.

I feel so young, but so weighted by life.

I touch the marshmallow clouds with eager, childlike fingers.

I worry about things like 1/3 of a gallon of milk left on Tuesday.

I cry when I cannot try enough, do enough, be enough.

I am a tryer and a doer.



I understand that my best is all I can give.

I say I want to finally have nothing to try or to do...

I dream about being snuggled up with nothing on my mind but snuggling.

I try to make things happen that cannot be forced by my hand.

I hope for that day I will have tried and have done it all.

I am a tryer and a doer.

This is perfect! I love it. It made me feel like mine were so depressing though. I might have to write a third...

Will you still be my friend even though, according to our first lines, we are total opposites. Doer and tryer. dreamer and non doer.

Good job! ;)

Thanks for sharing. You most certainly are a doer. You get things done. We need more people like that in order to win the world over to Christ.
