The Most Unlikely Candidate

The most unlikely candidate.

Dreams died over 10 years ago

Expelled from that one opportunity

Left striped of hope & purpose

Until marriage and children came along

Tried to live through others

But it didn't work

What God has done is more amazing than a mere transformation

A Metamorphosis 

Molding and creating new parts, new visions

He knew better than I

Turning a career option deeply detested

Into my hearts desire's

He gave me a fire

And granted me acceptance at the #1 school in the nation

Then provided a full scholarship to attend

I was like them who dream dreams

Never so challenged as a student

And never so forced to my knees

Than on that day--

This day one year ago

Facing every single one of those dreaded 265 test Questions

I stood before that Burning Bush where HE dwells

My incapability to turn my own destiny fully revealed

Like Hannah I swore to hand back my plea

For this one gift

This advent of breakthrough

I would offer a dance and a praise

And give my all in Love and Service

The most unlikely candidate

I cannot boost of riches or fame

Nor that perfect balance every mom and wife dreams of

But I can offer you hope, that God still raises the dead 

He revives dreams and gives life again

He parts waters.

He transforms

And creates new things

I am the most unlikely candidate

So I know He can do it for you

Trust HIM with your life-- 

'You're going to like the way you look. I guarantee it.'
