Lost and Found

My world was empty, And no real joy filled my life. Lonliness,Depression and Fear were my constant companions. I sought reliief from my lonliness in dreams and books, For they were my only friends. Then, You found me. You quietly called to me. You patiently waited for me to finally hear Your voice. Your gentleness slowly calmed my fears, And assuaged my emptiness. Now my world is no longer empty; For You have filled it with Your love. Joy fills my soul, And I no longer seek escape in dreams or fantasy, For Your love is real. I hungered, and You fed my spirit. I thirsted, and You filled my soul. I feared, and You comforted me. I was so alone, and You called me Your Own. I was lost, and now I am found. I love You. At times people everywhere will take advantage of you, whether at work, at home or wherever, that happens sometimes. Maybe more often to some than to others. The thing is, PEOPLE will fail you, let you down, disappoint you, That's LIFE. God won't fail you. God won't let you down. God won't disappoint you. THAT'S GOD, He's there. You just have to look for Him and trust Him. For Show Me God contest by Unseeking Seeker
