My Soul Prays

Oh LORD help me For fear has held me captive At this moment I can’t see you for fear has blinded me Help me LORD lest I perish I am overwhelmed by the troubles of life Topsy-turvy is the description of my life But I look unto the hills from whence cometh my help Do not be silent any more my GOD For my faith is being tested I have waited on you to come to my rescue I have had several sleepless nights tossing and turning in bed Sometimes I am drenched in my tears Wondering when you will come to my rescue Evil men mock me some others rejoice at my seeming down fall What a tragedy Arise oh LORD and let my enemies be scattered For I know your plans for me are plans of good and not evil Yes! the vision is for an appointed time though it may tarry LORD I bow before you, in thanksgiving and praise of your holy name Surrendering to your sovereignty and ruler-ship over the life of your children For who can decree a thing when you oh LORD has not spoken I await that day when my salvation shall come I wipe my tears and I encourage myself in the LORD Knowing fully well you JEHOVAH will never fail or forsake me Yes my salvation is here For I know my redeemer liveth Thank you LORD.

This is a beautiful poem and prayer straight from your heart Felix. Know that God give his toughest battles to His strongest soldiers and that He will never forsake you for God promise us and u mentioned it in your poem too; "For I know the plans i have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope for the future". Stay strong and trust in God always. Warm regards "B"
