Who gets to be the Boss?

I thought
I could do it alone..
my intelligence
my work
my time
was only necessary to take me along.

i thought that
You were not required..
bcoz
watever i did
I could see
but
whatever You do,
all Your plans
i cant see in writing
i just thought
that Your word didnt count.
Only mine counted.


Now I stand emptyhanded
all that I had done
has been
wiped away into non existance
before my very eyes
in one wave of Your hand.

All my sweat, my time, my plans
-a mockery by Your one move.

My intelligence ,my work
- nothing in the shadow of Your power

How insignificant am I..
Nothing at all am I..

I realise
that nothing
in my life
is possible
without You willing it.

After all
U are the potter
and I,the clay,
formless and shapeless,
in Your hands..
and unless You didnt will it
I would have always been like that.

I have paid a heavy price..
but the insight and realisation
I have is priceless
Let me bear this in my mind all thru out.
Let me not forget this lesson.

And now
I crawl back
wiping away tears
In Your great mercy
will You forgive me?
In Your hands
I lay my life

Take me Your way
thru the valleys and Hills
for
my vision is myopic
my memory so shortlived

Never ever let me forget
how I started out..

Never ever let me
be arrogant of anything I have..

Never ever let me forget
how my life wud have been...
if You hadnt willed it.
if You hadnt touched it.
