Poetry
I throw myself across the bed,
I can't get the thoughts out of my head.
"Why didn't You answer my prayer?
I wonder, God, if You are even there?"
Through my tears and sobs, I cry,
"Why God? I don't understand why?"
In my rebellion, I plan and scheme
To go back to those things from which You have redeemed.
But You know my heart and You know my mind.
You send me just the right words at just the right time.
You speak to my heart through godly friends;
Stern and true - their words my broken heart mend.
I cry out to You, and You always hear.
Even when I am drowning in my own fear.
You rescue me with Your outstretched arm.
And keep me sheltered - safe from harm.
God, I know You have Your reasons why,
Things happen that sometimes make us cry,
If I go through these trials only to write,
Then to help one person, it is worth the fight.
Don't ever let me forget, O God, Who You are.
You reach out to catch me, no matter how far.
I will love and praise You until my last breath.
And know I will be in Your arms, even in death!
