Where is my faith? Where is my peace? Where is my joy? And where is my hope? All i really want, all i truly need can only be found in You. Apart from You i have no faith, no peace, no joy and i have no hope.
Why am i so fearful? Troubled? Downcast? Why do i feel so anxious?
Instead of running to You i find myself running from You.
I ask myself why i do this when i know that anything i put before You will only rob me of my joy and steal my peace. You want to restore these things to me and revive in me a calm heart and quiet spirit.
Still i find myself running...running away from You.
All i have to do is call Your name and You are there but the distractions are too much for me to bear. I wasn't meant to bear them alone but i keep trying...and it is a losing battle and i know it.
Finally i find myself, weary from the struggle. So tired of doing on my own-only to fail again.
Lord, i am calling on You now. My voice is weak but i know You hear me just the same.
Please lift me from this pit i have dug for myself and put my feet back on solid ground.
I need You, Lord. The battle is Yours and i am Yours too.
