Answered Prayer

God I am begging you please.
 I need strength.
 To pick myself up 
off my bruised knees. 
I've prayed this prayer over again.
Wondering why you never answered them?
It's in your hands, I'm giving it all to you.
I know you will show me, what I need to do.
God smiled down at this traveling man.
Said listen to me, your still in the right direction.
Facing forward never turning back.
 I always want to see you continuing down the path. 
Never give up soldier
Soon will be victory.
Your bruises will be your story, about your spiritual journey with me.
