Every soul passes through trials
Many are strong but short
There are some that settle in like a long cold spell
Each day wears you down
An unmovable mountain
Daily we search for the exit but the beatings continue
Darkness continues and you try to endure
Eventually, the tolerance goes beyond your suffering
You pray for it to go away but it continues
Numbness enters as you realize it will be with you for the whole of life
The motions are engrained and the mode is survival
God allows these circumstances
He wants to be our Lord, our God
As our Creator, He is uniquely positioned to know us
While He is all knowing and all powerful
He wants us to come to the realization that only He can water our desert
Only He can quench our thirst
We can trust Him in all aspects of life.
Perhaps only when we are so beaten can we finally be ready to accept
God for who He is rather than who we think He is
