A Sinking Ship
Feeling like a sinking ship
in the sea.          
What is it???

Someone else precious to my heart
has died again.

Why God???
Why do you keep taking from my life
the people I cherish most?   

I found a good reason to give up
on that thing so called LIFE,
a remake of JOB’s downfalls.

Feeling forsaken by God.
The thought of isolation.
The thought of running away.
My heart is aching.
  
The thought of ending it all.
Concocting a slow but sure death.
Doing it my own way.
The thought of suicide.
  
A small voice inside
is whispering to me,
Would taking your own LIFE
end your LIFE forever???
  
Probably from the face of the earth,
but not from the face of God

Without faith
It is impossible to please God.

Go on, ye of little faith
Confide in me
For I will help you
For I am your friend
And I LOVE you
Never will I leave you
Will I ever forsake you
For as long as I am sitting on the throne
There is nothing that I cannot do for you
For I am your creator
And you are my TREASURE,
my POSSESSION
  
I would be a heartless FATHER
If I was refusing to help you
I gave you already the life of my only Son
For you to have eternal LIFE
  
What I am asking from you???
To BELIEVE in ME
And to be PATIENT.

Your THOUGHTS are not my THOUGHTS
For all things work together for those
Who LOVE God and are
called according to his purpose.
