Our God is Greater!!!!!

I'm going to be posting some of my poems on here from a while ago, but this is one I also wrote the other night when I was battling negative thoughts. Tonight as I re-read it I listened to a song called Our God is Greater, by Chris Tomlin that really reminded me which voice I need to listen to in the long run. Also, I read some verses in my Bible that reminded me that God's great power will win out in the end and will heal all of me! :) I will rest in this Truth as I go to sleep tonight, because My God is greater, My God is stronger, My God is higher than any other!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the poem...

The Battle in my Head

“Do it perfect, do it right,”
The voice it screams so loud.
“Don’t screw up, do not fail,”
“Don’t disappoint the crowd.”
Faintly in the distance
I think I hear God say,
“You are my precious Princess,:
But then it fades away.
The louder voice shouts at me,
“You deserve much pain!”
This battle in my head,
It makes me go insane!
“Liann, you worthless baby,
You deserve to die,”
I hear the still small voice of God
Whisper, “that’s a lie.”
Which voice do I believe?
Which of these is right?
I cannot make a choice,
The end’s nowhere in sight.
“SHUT UP!” I yell, to both the voices
“Please give my mind a break!”
I’m pleading on my knees by now,
It’s more than I can take!
“Liann, you’re gross, you dirty whore,”
The loud voice yells at me,
The other voice responds to that,
“But I have set you free.”
I do not know which voice to pick
Will I ever know?
“Pick me, pick me…NO pick me!”
The voices do not slow.
It’s time to go to bed,
I lay down for the night,
Just to get a break
From this never ending fight.

Psalm 147:2-6
“The Lord builds up Jerusalem; He gathers the exiles of Israel. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit. The Lord sustains the humble but casts the wicked to the ground.”

“Into the darkness You shine, Out of the ashes we rise, there’s no one like You, none like You. Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God You are higher than any other, Our God is healer, Awesome in power, our God, our God! And if our God is for us then who could ever stop us, and if our God is with us then what could stand against?!” ~Our God is Greater by Chris Tomlin
