My Complications/God's Sweet Simplicity

I don't know about you but I can really lose my focus
and life can get complicated.
Battles seem longer, fiercer, unbearable , and lonely.

Even when I know to wait, have faith, trust GOD, and
allow HIM to provide the answers, I steam ahead mucking things up.
Then before you know it, it is complicated.

I say GOD where are you? I cannot see you.
I am trying to listen but I don't hear you.
I feel alone I cannot feel you.
I so need to feel your heart beat in tune with mine,
that I feel afraid when I do not.

Then I see a red bird that lands on a branch above me
and you say, "I am here, can you see me"?
A dove coos sweetly nearby and you ask "I am here can you hear me"?
The wind picks up and a breeze brushes my face, and you ask "I am here can you not feel me"?

You are here, I am safe , we are good !


Isaiah 40: 31
But they who wait upon the Lord shall renew their stregth; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint. KJV
