Where are you now?

by Betsy Price   Nov 10, 2005


"God," I ask,"where are you now?"
I pull my knees up to my chest,
I hear the cliches all around me,
Telling me, "Betsy God knows best"

But I am hurting, and I am confused,
As I look up to the sky,
If you are almighty God,
Please...answer my cry

God," I say, "I am at my whit's end
My head drops deeper in my knees
I need you to say something,
God anything...a word, a breeze

Whisper to me Jesus,
Save my aching soul,
Fill this bottomless void,
My ever ending hole,

Shadow me in your wings,
Stop these endless tears,
God please say something
I hate the person in these mirrors,

One moment of peace,
One day of rest,
I keep hearing them say
"Betsy God knows Best"

But "God," I ask,"where are you now?"
I stand up and shout,
It's not a test, it is a need
Relieve me from my doubt.

    Omg, hun...i feel the same way..when you are in the deepest hole and you feel like you cannot come out (which i feel ALLL the time), God is there. when you've made the dumbest mistake ever, GOD IS THERE. and when people talk about you, GOD IS THERE! keep believing, because i feel that God has abandoned me, when He hasn't. take care and god bless! =)
