Alive

I am too tired and too confused to choose which way to go. Conflicting emotions inside my head change from day to day. It seems the more I seek Your wisdom the less I understand. I need You more than I ever have before.

You never said it'd be easy with You on my side. You never said I would steer clear of all the world's lies. Now I'm sinking; I'm falling; I'm dying, but You're raising me; You're catching me; You're keeping me alive.

Why is it when things are hard I start to think You've abandoned me. Because without Your eyes I don't see things as You see things. I know that You are love that I cannot quite comprehend, and what looks bad to me is often part of Your good plan.
