For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jeremiah 29:11

• When God seems to be late
• When God seems to be distant
• When you’ve been praying for awhile
• And nothing seems to work your way

How do I write how I feel?

How can I be truly honest with myself?

How can I talk to God in all honesty

And not risk offending Him

God knows my thoughts

God knows how I feel

But He still wants me to talk to Him

To let out my true emotions

Oh Lord, help my unbelief

Help my anguish

Sometimes I just don’t understand

Sometimes it’s difficult to hold on

Is this how you teach me to TRUST Oh LORD!

To bring uncertainty in our life

To hold on to ONLY YOU

To hold on to your Words alone

As I cry myself to sleep sometimes

When fear creeps in at night

But then YOU said, “just hold on tight

And LET GO of control and WAIT”

As I go through life one day at a time

At the back of my head wondering, “when would be that time?”

Yet YOU say, “MOVE FORWARD!

I AM CHANGING YOU through your circumstances”

And so I LET GO and LET YOU HANDLE IT

As I surrender every situation

Can you just let me cry sometimes

When I feel like I can’t go on?
