Last night the LORD left me.
I was in despair
In despair, I didn’t know He’d left
I just felt despair.
Last night I sought the LORD
He was quiet, I was fraught
I sought the LORD
and He did not reply.
After weeks of calm
Methodical detachment and trust
I was emotional:
Angry and afraid.
But I did not flee
Nor blame or denounce
I did not succumb to my flesh
But clung to His Spirit in me.
His grace is enough
His love is sufficient
His truth is all
And I am bathed once again.
Know this: we grow
Then we are tested
When we have a choice,
We yield and are saved
All over again.
