Trying Times

Trying Times

I woke up this morning
Feeling very miserable
That’s why I stayed in bed
Just wishing and hoping

My nerves became tense
Nothing made much sense
I wanted to scream at you
Instead, I cried for you

Spirit wasted no time
In drawing closer to me
You touched my heart
Reached for my hand

I began to tell you about
The feeling of void in me
Since you already knew
I needed to ask questions

You want to understand it all
Instead of trusting my plan
You are very upset with me
‘Cause you can’t figure it out

I keep reminding you
Please, do not be afraid
I know just how you feel
Do not resist my will

Prayed for peace of mind
Patience, courage, strength
As you restore and renew me
For all you intended me to be

Even before I said a loud amen
I started to feel plenty better
Now I am ready to face the day
Although I still don’t know why
