Wow, Lord!

When I gaze int the night sky, and see the works of Your fingers; The moon and stars suspended in space... Oh what am I that you are mindful of me??? You have named me Your princess, and bestowed upon me glory and honor. You have made me a little lower than the angels. You have put me above all creation. The beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and even the fish of the sea! What am I that You are mindful of me??! You amaze me, Lord! Oh You who alone can tame the leviathan, why do you notice me? You bless me in ways which I do not expect, just because You can! You have placed in my life, something I did not even know existed. I thought I had it made. I thought I was in your will, and that all would be well. You are so clear. You're silent when You have no intention of saying anything, and when You DO intend to say something, everyone knows. I recognize the fact that sometimes You deem it best to grow our character instead of give us the answer we demand, and I would ask You to please forgive me for not trusting You completely. You have come through, just as You promised me You would, and I can't believe the way it's happening! I really never thought I would ever enjoy something like this, but You are doing a wonderful job of changing my mind! I love You so much, my Lord! You extend Your hand to Your children and gently invite them to sit in the lap of Your love. Perfect love casts out fear, and innumerable blessings await the few who truly learn to submit their fear to Your love. I'm afraid it's taking me longer than it should, but You are so patient and merciful, You make me want to open up more. I lift my hands to You and praise Your name. You are my Father. My Abba. My Daddy. You call me Your child. Oh who am I to deserve this??!
