By myself.
Nowhere to turn.
Deserted.
Abandoned.
I desire to be around people.
But instead I’m alone-
Stranded on this desert island of
Misery.
Pain.
Worthlessness.
Does anybody care?
No.
Does anybody feel my pain?
Not likely.
This world has nothing for me.
Day after day being ignored by the world.
Seeing strangers walk by knowing you’ve been judged-
before they even know who you are.
It takes its toll.
For most people their goal is to be noticed.
Being noticed is a desire within all if us.
That sense of security.
The feeling of worth.
Not one person doesn’t crave it.
It envelops the earth.
While that is something I want.
There is something I NEED.
To feel loved by somebody.
To be known.
Not just to be seen-
Or heard-
Or looked at-
For someone to look at me-
And want to get to know me-
This Loneliness is KILLING me.
And I let it…
But with You..
Well.. EVERYTHING changes..
I no longer am lonely.
You fill my days with-
Love.
Happiness.
Security.
Meaning.
To be LOVED by You is what I’ve been missing.
You. KNOW. Me.
You desire for me what is best.
This sense of longing I had?
It is gone like the rest-
Of those wants and needs-
That were bringing me down.
You shown me the straight and narrow
And I can’t just stop now.
O God, MY God
What more is there to say?
You turn despair into hope.
Fear into courage.
Sadness into Joy.
Night into Day.
The peace that dwells in me-
It’s something I can feel.
I know whatever happens.
It resides in Your Perfect will.
Lord, I know You won’t leave me.
And of that I am sure.
I was homeless.
You gave me shelter.
You made me rich-
when I once was poor.
I knock repeatedly and You opened the door-
And let me in-
To a world I couldn’t get in on my own.
A world you have shown in Your Love letter to us.
A promise I know that You’ll keep.
For every word You have uttered
Every promise You speak is like sweet sweet-
Nectar to this newly repented being.
God, You are everything to me.
You have given my life Actual meaning..
