God's Impact on Me

Cry Out!
LyTonya Fowler

Lord, can you hear me?

I’m crying out to you

Because my heart aches.

Desperately, I need

Peace.

My world is turning upside down

And I am trying to do the unattainable.

 

Lord, can you hear me?

Believe me when I say that

I am nothing without you.

Sure, life is not easy,

But, who am I to question you?

Lord you have blessed me with

Abundant provision and

A breakthrough is coming my way.

 

Lord, can you hear me?

Your plan is so hard to see

But I trust you,

My eyes are closed, God,

And I will let you guide me.

I need you now because

There have been times that I wouldn’t—

Or rather, couldn’t make it and

It was just too much to bear.

I cried. I broke down.

 

Lord, can you hear me?

I trust that this situation that I am going through

Is only temporary.  

You are the Lord of a breakthrough

And I worship you.

Thank you for being my rock, my faith, my peace.

Show me how to declare the gospel as

Boldly as I should, Lord

For this is just preparation for my final destination



My first semester in college was a difficult transition; I was emotionally overwhelmed.

I prayed to God to send me  wonderful Christian friends who I could talk to and share both my triumphs and

failures with when I needed someone to listen. After hearing my faith-filled prayers, God granted me

more friends than I could have ever imagined. Within the first couple of weeks at UNC, my mind was

overwhelmed with so much, and it was easy to get lost in this wonderful freedom called college.

I needed guidance, direction, and structure in my life. There were days that I questioned why I was

really here at UNC Chapel Hill. Truthfully, I had personal goals that I wanted to accomplish within the first year,

but in all of my prayers, I wanted God to bless me with opportunities that were meant for me and were not

ust the desires of my heart. When you feel like you are undergoing a tough time in your life,

know that you are destined for greatness.


Remain blessed & be encouraged.
