Dear God,
Sometimes I wonder if You are near,
And I wonder how far You are – I look around and all I see is inexplicable incomprehension.
I know I shouldn’t feel this way.
You know what?…I do. And I’m not ashamed to let You know.
Then You take me back to the work of Your hands;
The birds how colourful they are,
The grasses absorbed with the blessings of the morning dew,
The air, leading the trees to dance to Your praise,
The flowers blooming out with Your joy from within,
You know… sometimes I think this way,
Even though I trust You are in control.
Dear God,
I live in a miserable world,
True, my world is not miserable, but my heart aches for the world cause’ all I see is insanity-
Sometimes I pray You lighten up this burden.
I know I shouldn’t feel this way.
You know what?…I do. And I’m not ashamed to let you know.
My world has given in to unnatural feelings and they say is right, they tell me it’s ok.
In the world it’s been disaster upon disaster, crime after crime.
All around me, evil, evil, evil, bad, bad, bad!
Yes my people laud evil- it is a habit, a culture!
They say I am retarded for holding unto You- which I don’t mind.
Children are rendered parentless from their bloodshed!
My heart aches! Yes! It does!
Streams have flown through my eyes! And they keep flowing!
What hope have the future generation?! How would they survive in this degrading wickedness?!
This intense inhumanity?!
And I wonder where You are…what You are thinking at the moment.
Should I think these things? I know not. But I do…
You know… sometimes I think this way,
Even though I trust You are in control
