Jesus Is a Solid Rock

My soul is broken. My body's achin'. At times... I feel so utterly forsaken. I've tried to serve God the best I could. So many of his ways... I've never understood. Rather then trusting him and holding his hand. My life is sinking deep into quicksand! So many nights, I've cried myself to sleep. I feel like I'm in a pit 100 ft. deep. I cry unto you Lord to pull me out. From you... Oh Lord... I don't want to be without! By your tender mercy and unfailing grace. I trust you to put my life on a solid place. This solid place is Jesus... my rock and foundation. I've received his free gift of salvation. He put my feet on a rock to stay. And his word guides me each and every day. A song of thanksgiving is what I bring. He is my righteousness and my everything! He's always there when I've needed someone to turn to. He's here right now... and is waiting for YOU!

i think at times all Christians have felt that way, i know i have. God does things in His time not ours. Patience is the key word. this was a fine piece of poetry you wrote. and you are on the right track, just keep the faith always, some days will be worst than others, then at times you will be sky high.
