Dear Lord ...

Dear Lord,

Never have I felt so afraid.

Never have I felt so alone.

But You are with me, dear Lord, 

so why do I fear when You are here?

My little heart is confused, like a bottle tossing

on the waves of the ocean.

Why can't I just let go and let You

steer the ship of my life?  

I cry, I fret, I beg You to speak to me.

You shake Your head in disbelief that

Your child should feel such hopelessness 

when You are there.

O Lord, please bear with me

and help me through this difficult time.

Please walk with me hand in hand

for I have never needed you so much than now!
