A soul in Distress


Busted and broken dreams

Fill your mind as you try to sleep

What you have longed for so long

Has turned into a pile of ash and soot

It is at this moment as bitter tears begin flow

You cry out to the LORD,

I had planned for many things in my dreams

But now none of what I chose for my life is coming to pass

My hopes and dreams are busted and broken

My soul is in anguish within me.

Just then a gentle voice speaks and looking around

All you see is a quilt square with a scripture

with Isaiah 41:10 written inscribed on it

Are these words, ” Do not fear, for I Am with you.”

You look and read the verse,

Realizing that the gentle voice is speaking at this time

Was the LORD and as He speaks

Your tears begin to disappear as HE questions your soul ,

“You had many plans, hopes and dreams that can never be.

I see the paths that your desires have been on and its outcome,

And in MY mercy I caused them to busted and broken.

In order to bring you into a place your soul,

Where I, I alone am YOUR God and KING above all else.

Do not be disappointed My child for I love you with a steadfast and enduring love, for what you thought was best would only lead you to destruction.

So ,take MY hand once more and follow ME on the path that I will direct your life to take.”
