The Days I walk alone...

  • Mood: post distraught.

Help me Jesus

Some days it seems I walk alone,

When all I can do, is kneel before God’s throne;

When the unbelievable happens, and my mind won’t rest...

When the only thing I know is my faith is being put to it’s test!

 

The days when all that can, certainly does go wrong;

When Satan comes in, and tries to steal my song

When I am caused to question the very air I breathe,

And still I will pray that My Lord will relieve...

Everything I need

The days when Job’s experience is made real to me,

When My Lord calls me closer — And to trust in what I cannot see.

To others, I might be in the wrong or getting the raw deal,

To me, it’s a chance for my Gracious Lord to heal...

 

I must be broken, to exceed my limitations you see —

In order for my Lord to shape and mold me...

I don’t care what it looks like, or about the trials I go through;

Just only that to God I continue to hold unto.

"Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him."

Job 13:15 (NKJV)

 

This poem is inspired by the current set of circumstances in my life. I can't even believe it myself just how much has happened (negative)...how many things have gone wrong...how things seem to be just falling apart all around me!

I still believe it is because God is allowing things to happen, in order to break me of my self-sufficiency. I believe He's allowing all of this to happen in order to 'force' me to rely on Him completely...

It's a painful experience (literally), it's a heart-breaking and troubling experience...but in the end, I pray that I will come out with greater faith, and a renewed sense of TRUST.

I put my trust in You

Some of the wise will stumble, so that they may be refined, purified and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time. Daniel 11:35

Many ill be purified, made spotless and refined, but the wicked will continue to be wicked. None of the wicked will understand, but those who are wise will understand. Daniel 12:10

With Him I can stand

My Response:

Lord, I understand. Others around me may not, but I do. Thy will be done.

 

(It's coming close to Easter, and I was reminded of a poem I had written last year...seems like I'm stuck going in circles lately, because the poem applies to me very much still....The poem was called "My Easter Prayer")

 

entry appended - April 26/07...

I copied this from the last copy of our church bulletin. I thought it appropriate:

 

Never Again



Never again will I confess "I can't," for "I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13)


Never again will I confess unmet needs or poverty, for "My God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory" (Philippians 4:19)

Never again will I confess fear, for "God hath not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (II Timothy 1:17)

Never again will I confess doubt or lack of faith, for "God has given to every man the measure of faith" (Romans 12:13)

Never again will I confess weakness, for "The Lord is the strength of my life" (Psalm 27:1) Also . . . "for the joy of the Lord is your strength" (Nehemiah 8:10)

Never again will I confess supremacy of Satan over my life, for "Greater is He that is within me than he that is in the world" (II John 4:4)

Never again will I confess defeat, for "God always causes me to triumph in Christ Jesus" (2 Corinthians 2:14)

Never again will I confess lack of wisdom, for "Christ is made unto me wisdom from God" (I Corinthians 1:30)

Never again will I confess sickness, for " . . . with His stripes I am healed" (Isaiah 53:5) And "Jesus Himself took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses" (Matthew 8:17)

Never again will I confess worries and frustrations, for I am "Casting all my cares upon Him who cares for me" (I Peter 5:7)

Never again will I confess bondage, for "where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" (II Corinthians 3:17)

Never again will I confess condemnation, for "There is now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1)

Hi

Thanks for dropping by my blog the other day. Circumstances in the past meant that I also had to become much less self sufficient and rely on God more. This was a really hard lesson, but it also proved that God is here, even when no-one else could help. I also don't believe you have failed the 'Training College' thing: if Officership is His will for your life, doors will open for you. All you have to do then is decide whether you want to go through them. I felt that there was no option for me but Officership: God closed many other doors for me and only left the Officership route open. As soon as I decided to follow Him, everything began to work out. Hope this helps in some way. Keep in touch
God bless
Dawn:)
