are you there?

i wrote this after i had "fallen" from the church

Lord, can I talk to you?  Will you listen?  

You see I've been going through some hard times lately.  

I try to look at the good things, but it is hard when evil is all around.  

There is evil in what my friends do, what I do, my family too!  

I hope you hear my prayer.  Because I need you.
There is evil all around.  Everywhere I look, everywhere I step.  

All there is is evil.  I feel like I'm trying to light a whole room with only one small candle.  

But I only light up part of the room.
I don't understand Lord why can't I feel you?  

Why can't I see you?  I need you!  I don't know if you are there.  

So whats the use of trying?   I can't hear you.  I can't see you.  

I can't feel you.
Do you think I should stop?  Stop praying to something I can't see!

 If I can't feel you, see you, or hear you.  How do I know you are there?

 How do I know you are listening?  Lord, are you there?
I can't explain it, but somehow, I don't know how,

but I know you are getting  this.  My plea for help, an answer, your love, and you.  

You're all I need.  Come into my life, and change me, fulfill your will in my life.

My goodness.....You have no idea what you are capable of . You have your feelings and you have your emotion and drive and Love for the Lord, there is no end to what he can do for you, there is no place he doesnt see, there is no cry left unheard. Know that Jesus is always with you, no matter what you do, what you say, or what you see, he is still there and will never stop loving you.
