Oh my dear friend why are you so down
So down on our Lord
He is listening to you
I feel He has not turned His back but you turned yours
In a time when you needed Him most
Oh how He wants to comfort you
You pushed Him away as if He is the one who hurt you
I am afraid this world has hurt you
Life happens and times can get tough
But Jesus is there to cry with you and help you find the strength to make it through
I know you feel crushed and left in the cold
Thats when you should of called on Jesus not pushed him away with anger
He is our Counselor and Brother and wants for things to be better as much as you do
His wisdom knows that nothing and no one of this earth will dwell here forever
But His family will live forever in a place with no more hurt
Some things we don't understand here on earth
Some things seem unfair
If you put your trust, understanding and faith only in Him and no one else not even yourself
He promises to shine that Light for you
Right through this darkness
Please I feel His love for you
Come let Him cry with you and let Him heal you
He greatly misses you
You can't be angry at the One who truly loves you
Reason why I wrote this:
No it doesn't rhyme and no its not even poetic. But I was searching on "you tube" for a song I really like. I saw other song titles and they were focussed on Christ in a wrong way. I listened to them and was greatly saddened to hear what one of my favorite artists was saying. I never knew this side of the band before. The words to these songs I have never heard of are basically saying this guy once knew Jesus and still does but He feels greatly abandoned by Him and is hurt and therefore is turning away in his anger and sadness. I have known other people to say these things but they usually let this settle and don't deal with it. Usually you hear these things when dealing with death. It turns into depression for many. And they usually do a pretty good job hiding it form others or drowned it in other things. Hearing these words made me so sad. I want to find this man and talk to him myself. I guess all I can do is pray for him and others I know of from my past. Others I will never see again and this man who is famous and I will never see. His faith sounds little and I wish so much to build him up. I cannot express enough how this grips my heart for others who feel hurt by Him. Because we know in our hearts and in promises through scripture thats not it, thats not it at all. I wish I could help those see that.
