Hey Mama,
I see you, in your sweats
With unbrushed hair and bare feet
Your coffee cup a lifeline permanently affixed to your hand
No time to groom
No time to eat
No time to think
He sees you...
I see you, googling frantically
Zooming, loading, disconnecting
Cursing the teacher under your breath
Long forgotten primary school math
Long forgotten passwords
Long forgotten patience
He sees you...
I see you, trying to do your work
Sitting at your makeshift desk
Staring at the screen with tired eyes
So many tabs open
So many emails still unread
So many assignments not yet finished
He sees you...
I see you, late into the night
Counting out your pennies and your pantry
The day dies but the worries don't
When will it end?
Where will we be?
How will we survive?
He sees you...
He sees you and He knows you
He made you, after all
He's with you, holding onto you
He will not let you fall
He will give you strength when you are weak
He will bring life to dry bones
He will fill your cup to overflowing
He will bring peace to your homes
He's not at all surprised by this
He's still sovereign when it's tough
He is working for you, for your good
Rest!
His grace is still enough
Oh wow! Beautiful!!!
