I feel like hell right now, I
feel invincible, I feel terrible, I feel… sad, really sad and angry at God. I wish I wasn’t in church right now so that I
could cry. I feel the tears shimmering
on my lids. God why me? Why?
I can’t even put to words the
exact way I feel... Empty perhaps? Yes empty.
I feel like I am just living aimlessly.
Why do I feel this way when I am in your presence? I should be happy…I should feel loved... I should feel wrapped in the comfort of your
presence around me… but I don’t.
Everyone is avidly listening to
the priest and screaming AMEN, claiming everything he is saying for them. But I don’t hear anything he is saying, he
just drones on and on, he is definitely not saying anything I want to hear
right now. I wish he would tell me why I
feel this way, if only he would tell me why my life is so stagnant… I wish he would just shut up already. I don’t feel like being here right now, I want
to go home and cry.
Everyone around me is getting married;
everyone is getting a job, everyone in moving somewhere, but I am just here;
nothing is happening in my life. I want
to have a testimony, I want to be able to say something…anything at all, but…there’s
nothing.
God, within this beautiful facade
that I present is a wailing soul, do something…
You know my thoughts right now… do something about them! You know how I feel right now even though I can’t
put them into words…do something!
Do something father, and do it fast before I drown.
Your favorite daughter.
P.s- even though I don’t like you right now, and I am not
happy with you, I love you Lord and you are still my best friend.
dear onyinye,i know that feeling.
ReplyDeleteGlad you still love God, but in times like this we need to trust Him much more and be patient. If you would like to talk , leave me a line.

Thank you so much Dianah, I am really glad someone understands how I feel.
DeleteDear Onyinye, Jesus loves you & he won't forsake you. Just believe & have faith. You are alive, that is enough testimony!! Only a living soul can worry.
