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.
