Faltering Faith

I'm feeling low today, dear Lord,

So depressed and blue,

I wonder when I feel this way ;

Have I lost my faith in you ?

 

Did your faith ever falter, Lord ?

Did you feel saddened, too ?

I'm sure that if you ever did;

No weakness was in you.

 

I know that I should raise my head,

Your blessings now to see,

But all that I can do, dear Lord;

Is cry, Me ! Me ! Me !

 

I'll read your word again, O Lord,

And strive to understand,

I'll try to fortify my faith;

And hold your ever present hand.

This poetic prayer reflects the sentiments of many, when faced with the whisperings of the enemy. I was drawn to the following scripture for strength and understanding;

1 Corinthians 10:13 (The Message)

13 No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he'll never let you be pushed past your limit; he'll always be there to help you come through it.

God's Blessing

I have wandered this sad path far too many times to count, dear friend. As I'm sure many have, but what truly matters is being aware of it and moving on... becoming idle can be the death of our faith.

Very beautiful. I know at times I lose my faith and have to go find God in my own way. I liked how you worded this. Very good.

This is a good poem about thinking that you have lost some of your faith, but we all have those times when we don't know why something is happening and we ask God about why it is?

Great poem
