Fig Tree

Folder: 
To God

Oh God, You said that mountain would move

If I prayed and believed with all of my heart

Oh God, You said there was nothing I couldn’t change

If when I prayed my soul was full on Faith

Well, now it’s full up and I’m waiting



It’s harder than I thought

Though easier than I saw it to be

And now that nothing’s in front of me

I know with all my heart it was You

It was You that moved that mountain

It was You that showed me the Truth



Now Father, I’ll admit to You that I was young

Though I know that that’s no excuse

Now Father, I’m here to ask if I can come home

Though I know it’s not that easily done

I’m asking You if it can be



Though easier than I saw it to be

It’s harder than I thought

And now that nothing’s in front of me

I know with all my heart it was You

It was You that moved that mountain

It was You that showed me the Truth



The fig tree stands tired and withered

In the sand that doesn’t hold water for long

It digs it’s roots further and deeper down

To the depths where water never leaves



It’s simpler than I thought

So much easier that I saw it to be

This is how I felt after reading Mark 11:20-25
