I drop my sword....
I know I've been winning battles left and right
But even soilders can get wounded in the fight
Some people say that I'm amazing
Far beyond my years
But they don't see inside of me, i'm hiding behind my tears
They don't know that I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
So I drop my sword and cry for awhile
Cuz deep down inside this armor, this warrior is a child
Not afraid to go, cuz his armor is the best
But even siolders need a quiet place to rest
Some people say that I'm amazing
Never face retreat
But they dont see all the things thats laying at my feey
They don't know That I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
So I drop my sword, look up for a while
Cuz way down inside this armor, this warrior is a child
Way down in side this armour, this warrior is a child
"Don't be afraid little warrior bride, you're victory is on the other side!"

Powerful song, eh? I remember when I first heard it; it spoke very directly to how I was feeling at the time. I sometimes felt that although people seemed to be looking to me as an example, I felt pretty weak within myself... "what do I have to give that makes me a warrior?"
What comes to mind now when I read these words again is Paul's writing in 2 Corinthians 12:
"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
It's good to recognize your weakness; it's better to recognize God's strength; it maybe best to see how he uses his strength in spite of, and sometimes because of, our weakness.
That keeps us truly humble, and our eyes rightfully fixed on him.
Keep it up, girl!
