The Battle

Folder: 
Questioning God

There are days when I have no clue where you are

I sometimes question have I asked you into my life?

Have I given you my all? have I done anything right?



Cuz today so many things are going wrong

The past week has been a mess

And it's taring me down

I feel pulled in several different directions

and I don't know how much longer I can take this



I wonder about trust

and I wonder about love

I feel security with you

But sometimes I ask

Where are you?



I sit here and debate

the fights rattling my brain

I think of all the complexities you created

This earth filled with so much

Man what I would do

just to feel your touch



Somedays I wonder where the proof is

because I find myself constantly struggling

But I know the days you've spoken to me

Were the days things were lifted

and i was set free



But I find myself back into this fight again

And I wonder how can I truly be a christian?

Am I supposed to be showered in blessings?

Am I supposed to have this amazing feeling?

Lord aren't you supposed to overwhelm in me?



I'm just caught at this fork in the road

I just want to know, where I am to go

I'm pursuing God with all I got

But sometimes the fight is so hard

And my emotions get tied in a knot

Please help me figure this out

Cuz this is not how I want to live my life

I don't want to face this mess

I find myself in every now and then

I just want to trust in you

And come out a winner at the end

Hey Andy, I can totally relate to this poem, as I'm sure others can as well. Just want to let you know, no matter how 'defeated' we feel, we will come out as victors in Christ. I remember one time feeling so depressed because I didn't feel like I was doing anything right, just felt like a complete failure etc, and wondered if I would stand before God on that final Day in shame or in joy, becuase how could I be happy as such a sinner, but God spoke to me through 1 Corinthians 1:8&9 which says, "He will keep you strong to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful."

So keep trusting in Christ, He will finish the good work he has begun in you.
