Do Good To Your Servant

Suddenly my life has become one big bad news. Forsaking, discouragement, affliction and humiliation, What more do I have to lose? I have become an object, targeted for destruction. My heart and body become weary, longing for true affection But all whom I try to be with don’t see me fit their selection I’m now all alone left for dead and suffering, What to do in such a situation For I am just an earthling. When I look up to the dark endless skies, crescent moon and countless stars, I can’t believe I’m part of this great creation and wonders. Great is the creation of the earth and all that’s in it, Great is the creation of the universe and all that’s in it, When I look at such big creations;- my life I can’t conceive it. What different am I from the ant that I trample over without knowing? Doesn’t it too have a purpose to where it’s going? What different am I from the animals that are hunted down as prey? Don’t they too have a purpose to the way they stay? What different am I for I go through life the same way; The arrogant and proud hunt me as prey everyday Others knowing or without knowing block me from where I’m going. But now I realize that without these afflictions I go astray For since then the Lord has been good to me everyday HE watches over me and when I’m lonely and downcast in HIS word HE comforts me. I may be small and go through life as everything else in it, But there’s ONE who’ll always be A Father to all HE created. For greater is life than what ‘we’ have made it. LORD, my FATHER, I may never fully understand my meaning in this life, But I’ll always strive to fully comprehend YOUR Will as I go through this strife. So I ask, my LORD, make open to me YOUR Will For I have come to understand it’s what’s makes me live. Do good to your servant according to YOUR Word, Teach me knowledge and good judgment for I believe in your commands.
