I’m lonely
Here I am on my too soft and sinking mattress, with a yellow blanket to cover the dilapidated foam cover. Restlessness overtook me in my race to the world where everything is calm and tranquility is the order of the day. I closed my eyes but I couldn’t sleep a wink, my heart was too heavy and pumping way too fast to take a break.
Once again I am alone in my lonely world, no hands to hold, no buddies to hug and laugh with. It’s just me and me.
In my loneliness;
I recognized His presence;
and in my troubled state;
it was with him I had a date;
though He never spoke to me;
I knew He saw what was going to be;
needless to say, He had a sense of what I felt;
and every cold block of sorrow He was ready to melt;
if only I will say the word;
you are my Lord.
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
Matt 11:28 (KJV)
