a cry out to love

My Lord, my Father,
I'm on my knees.

I'm so filled with disappointment,
anger and frustrations.

God I'm to weak,
Ive relied on myself for so long.

Darkness and failure,
that's all I see.

But Lord,
I praise you!

God,
you allow me to come back.

I can feel your sweet embrace,
I can feel your mighty hands!

I'm safe amidst your presence,
and Lord, you fill my cup!

As I fall on my face,
Oh Lord bring sweet revival!

Shatter my heart to pieces,
And put me back together.

Here I am Lord,
use me!

Author notes

This year really has been a struggle, but God is good, and I do feel Him bringing me back :-). That is a good feeling, no doubt!

    Thank you for your entry. Congratulations on making it to the preliminary finalist list. I wish you the best of luck in my contest.

    I love that this poem is a true cry to God. It's heartfelt and I can see that.

    I love the way that you've closed this poem, "Here I am Lord, / use me!" That's wonderful. It's great that you want to be used by God. I admire that.
