In my place of misery...


I have been attentive.  For months my prayers have not waiver.  I have asked for protection, to be rescued for my foreseen path.  I distinguished all the warnings signs.  Daily I would kneel in front of the throne of grace petitioning his guidance, while genuinely trusting Him. 

However, it was inevitable.   The view is so familiar.  I recognize it instantly.  It is my place of misery.  No one sits with me, and there are no words of encouragement.  Only silence, and the blurriness of vision caused by my tears.  I am like Job watching my sores abound and the pain heighten.

It is such a contradiction to Jeremiah 29:11.  Where are the plans for good and the hope of a future?  Why is it that the same God who says He is my sun and shield; who gives grace and glory and does not withhold goodness (Psalm 84:11) has overlook the walk that has led to my place of misery? 

I wish I would have answers.  Words of wisdom.  Understanding.  But in my mind there is just one question; Why?
