All I Need is a Savior

Trials and temptations constantly lurk around the corner

Never ceasing to bring me stress and anxiety

I imagine my darkest fears coming to life

Loneliness, failure, disappointment

I run but I cannot hide

Suddenly I hear a faint voice behind a door

Calling my name

Beckoning me out of the darkness

It grows louder

Until it is the only thing I can hear

I open the door

And that is when I discover

All I need is a Savior

The answers for my comfort and peace

Lie within the pages of a heavy book

I am broken, beaten, and scarred

But because of my Savior

I am safe

I am loved

I am wanted

Placing an anchor in my newly found faith

I am secure

The fully man and fully God gave His life for me

So I may live

Without His unconditional love and undeserving mercy

I would have no purpose

And because I have His word 

That can be found in the Bible

I am held to an expectation

To take the less traveled road

To put others needs before my own

To love when loving seems impossible

His purpose for me is currently unknown

But He has a bird’s eye view of it all

All I know is

All I need is a Savior
