Fiery Trials



I desperately
need
to be 
sleeping
yet I'm tossing
turning,
wrestling 
with this
struggle,
yet tryin' to 
lay 
it
down
at the
feet
of
Jesus
where
He can impact
needed
changes
in attitude
and in heart.
This challenge,
this fiery
trial
is way
beyond me,


a broken
earthen
vessel
of 
clay. 
Yet,
somehow
amazingly,
there is a treasure
in this jar
of clay
that shows 
this all surpassing
power
is from God,
and
not
from
me.
