Lord have mercy!
The world spins furiously within my mind
Too many choices, yet no resolution
Where is my affirmation and validation?
Why can I ruminate forever and hate my decisions regardless of the outcome?
Why am I so heavy with grief?
The bombings are so distant and expected
The loss of life is inevitable, right?
But why? How do we twist your goodness into murder?
Where is the hope you promised?
How can we love, when there is so much hate?
Lord, have mercy
The beautiful country is now a barren wasteland haunted by murderous Ravens out for carrion
Ravages of war saturate the news, a war with(?) physical boundaries, yet permeates us all
Where is your justice?
When will you make these wrongs right?
My heart is drowning in envy, jealousy and distrust
I want so much, yet see so little hope
Even when granted, these gifts, I feel ill-equipped to steward them for your glory
I have no idea how to lay hold of what I have - what you have given
I don't deserve your love, your grace is a mystery
Will you please reveal it? I need you!
Hevel hevel...a mist promising satiation - fulfillment that never arrives
Unrest and lack of sleep
Distressed bowels torture me incessantly
Dizziness and excess worry linger through the waking hours
Sleepless nights of early dawn and foggy summers...
Ugh!
Free me from this prison of discontent!
Help me to love... like you love
Let me let go of that which holds me back!
May I see as you do and feel your heart's cry
Christ, have mercy
I hunger to rest in your loving arms
Come, Lord Jesus
Come!
