Wait

My mood today : ANGRY
What i feel right now? SAD, EMPTY, HATRED, REGRET, STRESSED, everything is WRONG
Yes, i feel so empty today. My mind is full of unnecessary thing right now and i'm so sososo terribly mad with him. I know i should not mind about this, but what can i say? it keeps bugging me. Why why and why one earth they gave me these pains? it hurts you know?!?! i hate it. although i know that it's only kind of revenge, but i still hate it.I have a thought of doing the same thing too, but no. I don't play with it. and from now on, i won't care. i will shut my ears, close my eyes, and do nothing. that's it. I'm done!

phew.. =.="

so, lemme share about one thing today, and it kinda made my mood better and i am quite relieved to read this. It strengthened me a lot. :)


Desperately, helplessly, longingly, I cried;
Quietly, patiently, lovingly, God replied.
I plead and I wept for a clue to my fate . . .
And the Master so gently said, "Wait."

"Wait? you say wait?" my indignant reply.
"Lord, I need answers, I need to know why!
Is your hand shortened? Or have you not heard?
By faith I have asked, and I'm claiming your Word.

"My future and all to which I relate
Hangs in the balance, and you tell me to wait?
I'm needing a 'yes', a go-ahead sign,
Or even a 'no' to which I can resign.

"You promised, dear Lord, that if we believe,
We need but to ask, and we shall receive.
And Lord I've been asking, and this is my cry:
I'm weary of asking! I need a reply."

Then quietly, softly, I learned of my fate,
As my Master replied again, "Wait."
So I slumped in my chair, defeated and taut,
And grumbled to God, "So, I'm waiting for what?"

He seemed then to kneel, and His eyes met with mine . . .
and He tenderly said, "I could give you a sign.
I could shake the heavens and darken the sun.
I could raise the dead and cause mountains to run.

"I could give all you seek and pleased you would be.
You'd have what you want, but you wouldn't know Me.
You'd not know the depth of my love for each saint.
You'd not know the power that I give to the faint.

"You'd not learn to see through clouds of despair;
You'd not learn to trust just by knowing I'm there.
You'd not know the joy of resting in Me
When darkness and silence are all you can see.

"You'd never experience the fullness of love
When the peace of My spirit descends like a dove.
You would know that I give, and I save, for a start,
But you'd not know the depth of the beat of My heart.

"The glow of my comfort late into the night,
The faith that I give when you walk without sight.
The depth that's beyond getting just what you ask
From an infinite God who makes what you have last.

"You'd never know, should your pain quickly flee,
What it means that My grace is sufficient for thee.
Yes, your dearest dreams overnight would come true,
But, oh, the loss, if you missed what I'm doing in you.

"So, be silent, my child, and in time you will see
That the greatest of gifts is to truly know me.
And though oft My answers seem terribly late,
My most precious answer of all is still . . . Wait."
Quite touching, and this, came today, at the time when i was very mad, very sad, and desperate. I felt like He talked to me through this poem and i was really glad to receive it... so, hope this can be a blessing to y'all ..
Blessings,
NANA
