Dying To Self

One of the hardest things for me is having to die to self
It's not just a daily task
It could be hour to hour
Minute to minute
Moment to moment
But sometimes it's necessary 
And it's at that time that I need to 
Refocus
Regroup
Remember that I was birthed for purpose on purpose
I have to remember that there's a calling on my life
My life is not my own
It doesn't simply benefit me
But also my family
Other families
I attempt to live a life pleasing unto God
I slip up
I mess up
I remember that I was birthed for purpose on purpose
That my gifts make room for me
That I'm not ordinary
I'm extraordinary
While I'm in God's holding pattern
Waiting on His promises and gifts
That are good and perfect
That are exceeding and abundant
I die to self daily
