Did you ASK HIM first?
Not your friend. Not your spouse. Not your mother, brother, or sister.
Did you ASK GOD first.
FIRST THINGS FIRST.
DEAR GOD,
Where are YOU?
What do YOU want me to do next?
Do YOU SEE me when no one else does?
Are YOU really there in the silence?
Will YOU REALLY never leave or forsake me?
Why won't YOU heal my hurts?
Why is it taking so long for YOU to answer my prayers?
And then GOD ANSWERS you.
HE ANSWERS you in a sunrise and sunset.
HE ANSWERS you in a tender touch from a friend ,
who reaches out to you at the perfect time when you need a touch.
HE ANSWERS you in a giggle from a little child.
HE ANSWERS you always.
Because GOD IS ALWAYS GOD.
GOD IS ALWAYS GOOD.
GOD IS ALWAYS FAITHFUL.
FIRST THINGS FIRST~
Just ASK HIM.
GOD, where are YOU?
GOD ANSWERS~
