A poem I wrote the other day

Through the darkness


Through the darkness I travel along, In this cruel world, How my heart needs a song, How can I feel lonely with God by my side, I know He must love me, because I'm why He died, Faith or feelings, I must make my choice, Feelings bring sorrow, fear, and regret, Faith can take me places I've never been yet. I choose You with my heart, The problem is with my head, I long to follow You, but fail to do what You have said, God, Only You know what I've been through, No one else can understand, so as I stand here trembling, Please hold my weary hand, Walk with me through this tunnel till I see the light of day, Keep my feet from straying off the straight and narrow way, Until You call me home, help me hold my head up high, and show others that Your promises will all our needs supply.

I am so sorry you are struggling, but you are really heading in the right direction from what you say in your poem. (written a lot of those myself thru my stuggle with this) I know it is easy to say & hard to do I am have to confess I have been neglectful at it but think it really will help if you try and focus on the good things in your life. Try writing down at least one good thing it may be as simple as seeing a pretty flower to as inspriring as your poem but the secret is to let you feelings out in healthy ways (like the poem) and try and remember the good things. It can be really hard I know. I am struggling to but your poem helped me. Take care

Struggling Christian,

Thank you for sharing your poem.

It's like a prayer as well.
It reminds of David in the Psalms.
He starts out with gloom, but refocus' at the
end on God/Jesus knowing that He is the guide, refuge of tower etc.

Keep writing you are doing the right thing.

Wish I could write too. I have a hard time getting my thoughts on paper.

God Bless,
