Work in progress

I just don't get it
Your eyes are angry, but your mouth sounds sweet.
If deceit is not your nature,
Why do your foot prints look like that?

You sit up straight.
You put your money in the dish
You sing your songs real loud.
What do they echo in the depths of your heart?

Is He in there?
Do you seek Him?
Would you know Him?
Does it matter?

If it might all end in Hell
Would you have rather slept in?

The emptiness of it all fills the gaps in your thoughts
Flowing swiftly and deeply into the voids of your life

He calls you.
You're loney.
He loves you.
You're busy.
You desire His will to fit into your life.

The darkness decending brings questions of why.
Marinated in moments of sorrow and guilt.

Save me dear Lord,
I repent. I need rescue.
Moments of silence
No answer at all.

Why did I wait?
Has He left me to die?
I did all the things they told me were right.
How could it end cold and lonely like this?

"I will never forsake you."
"My love never changing."
"Come rest with me now,
In the place I've prepared."

Surrounded in love
With no condemnation
Sanctified by His suffering
I am changed evermore.
