Sometimes I question You,
And winder whether You're listening.
I can't see You, or touch You, or even feel you,
So how do I know if You're really there?
Sometimes I get mad at You,
When I see bad things happen to good people.
I wonder why you wouldn't save them.
It makes me wonder if You're real
Sometimes when I pray to You,
I can sense that You are there with me,
Watching over me as Your child,
Blessing me with Your grace.
Sometimes when I can see You clearly,
When I see little babies or kind smiles,
Generous people and the beauty of nature,
It makes me believe with my whole heart.
Sometimes my questions about You don't matter,
Even though there are never definite answers.
I have faith in Your love.
Forgive me, God, for ever questioning You.

Sometimes we do question God when we are down and out, always asking him why things turn out that way. We forget that he has a reason for everything. When things get nasty and we feel all alone as if no one cared, we tend to ask, "God? Are You there?" The assurance that he will never forsake us seem to be overshadowed by the circumstances that we face.
Well, for those who are reading this, if you are feeling as if God has forsaken you and that you're all alone, i just want to let you all know that God is still there. He never forsakes you. He wants to help you with whatever problems you're having if only you'll let him and ask him. Don't shut him out of your life and take on the responsibility of God...it'll only make things worse. Let HIM be the first person you'll run to.
