Weeping

2781

Hear I am weeping contemplating life 

 

Things were done, and shall be done

 

My children, my wife

 

The friend you are to me, I shouldn't be afraid...

 

Maybe the time will tarry?

 

But I will not be a slave. 

 

To fall at the last hurdle 

 

Although it maybe high

 

Chosen to give my life to you...

 

So, hear I am.

 

I cry

 

How hard was it to say those words, Man, I must be dumb

 

To face the fate, with open arms:

 

Your will, not mine, be done.

        Pride keeps us from saying or even doing many things that we feel but do not want to admit to others. A lovely poem of acknowledgement

        Ooh. I feel the pain in your words my friend. I had a crying/praying session like this recently. Powerful stuff, especially in light of the last line/prayer's importance in the Garden of Gethsemane. Well done! πŸŒΉπŸ‘

          I'm like the rest of us. When confronted with fears, we all want an easy way out.
          That's where our faith gets challenged.
          Good news is- all his promises are yes and amen!

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Amen to that, my friend! A blessed Holy Week to you!

              No need to cry... You're doing His will, and that will give you strength. Well done!

              Very tragic tale indeed if your will can never find favor
              A good write πŸ‘
