wresttling
against His restoration
I’m restless
Unable to restart
Trapped by the restatements of past
Hoping for restitution
Finding only the restrictive power of my doubt
Lost in constant restive
I pray restrike me, Lord
Cast me into a replica of the original completely restructured
Calm, restful, subdued by Your love.
Totally at rest.
