PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I'm at a place

I don't know where

I'm too lazy to diligently seek His face

Do I even care?



My heart's stone cold

dry and full of complacency

This constant struggle is getting old



I still cry

but my heart remains a vacancy

everything around me is changing

the pull of this world is straining



You've moved on, but I'm still here

stagnant, disobedient

and frozen with fear

slowly slipping away

a little bit further each day



If I want Him, all I have to do is draw near

if You've become distant

it's only because my soul has become resistant

You know what's best for me,

so why is it so hard to trust that and agree?



God, forgive me for pulling back

and for all the faith that I lack

I want to listen

when You speak

give me strength

when I am weak

when You lead

I want to follow

and wherever Your spirit is moving

that's where I want to go



I don't want to serve You

expecting to get something in return

and I definately need to lose the mentality

that Your favor must be earned



some of the tasks

that God asks me to do

seem so difficult

and distressing

but I've learned in complying with Him

comes tremendous blessings



and even when we've done wrong

God doesn't stay angry for long

often God feels distant

but in reality, He isn't

God if You are in my heart

then I know that nothing can drift us apart.
