Hopelessly Expecting

Here I am again waiting

On you to show

How long this time?

My breath caught in my throat

Despite my calls and cries you delayed

Where are you friend?

Oh how I need thee,

I cannot bear it another day

Silly of me to doubt your love

and yet I often do

Hopelessly I wait for your call

or maybe an answer

What is next for me?

Can you not see our suffering?

Might to save, we are waiting!

Expecting your mirage amongst the dust

Appear to us once more

I’m sorry I strayed

Abiding in the shadows

It was us that forsook the light

Choosing our path and will

Yet hopelessly awaiting

For your helping hand

Rebuke me not dear Lord,

If not for me, the least of these

We were wrong, you were right

Restore to us your marvelous light

With great expectancy I will wait

Upon thine return

My breath released

Hopelessly expecting

My faith somehow firm

A photo I took at the lake this weekend.

    Absolutely love the vulnerability here! I’m in a season of doubt myself to put it very mildly. But somehow I’m still holding on too.

      I understand, life can be full of doubts but I’m glad that like me, you are choosing to stick it out! It gets better!
