~PlayDate Cafe Colors and a Testimony~




I love this verse.







The Lord knows how weak I am.


He knows I need Him everyday.



Every decision I make, He's there.


He's there because I ask Him to be.


I need Him.  Without Him, I'm just lil' ole weak Marlena


Scared of her shadow


Scared of making mistakes


Scared of rejection



I step out anyway.


I step out because of Him.


Jesus is all I have to truly offer you.



He is worth it.



He is everything.

Amen! LOVE it, Marlena, especially how you used that splash of hot pink to call attention to parts of the scripture! So pretty! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at The Play Date Cafe!
