No Comments How can a God?
4 9 08
How can a God who is so loving let people treat others with such utter
disrespect
Written because a friend was abused
How can a God who is so caring let people hurt for so long with no signs of life
Sometimes it seems Lord you have fallen asleep, but I know you haven’t hid your eyes
I try to explain the way you work, and I come up short every single time
I want to be a hero and take away the pain, but I know that only you can do that
Only you know why bad things happen to good people, and yet you allow it
Each wound that you allow, may they bring the victim closer to you dear Lord.
I know that Calvary wasn’t just for me and you, but teach me to come to you for justice
The systems of this world are faulty, and each time I pray for you to bring peace
There are so many times when we ignore that God’s in control
You died for everyone, not just the Christians of the world today
Take a battered girl and make her whole again
Hold her in your arms oh Lord
Comfort her in her pain that’s driving her insane
Help her to find peace, help her find joy
It is strange that I don’t know her, but I pray that this would be true
Hold her tight as the world tries to steal her tender heart
I ask for you to bring healing for the wounds that were left
I ask you to shower her with the grace that you had when they spat in your face
A peace that transcends all comprehension, a love that heals each and every wound
Piece her back together and dwell within her heart
I am asking you to bring justice and some how bring your name glory through this tragic time
I don’t understand everything, but I am confident that you do
I am asking for you to rain down your mercy upon her
Reign supreme within her deepest longings
I ask all this in your name Amen.
