Lord, sometimes I get exhausted,
with all of life’s demands
sometimes I get so tired
following everyone’s commands.
For, I would much rather,
just spend time alone with You
with my Bible and commentary
the only two things in view.
Lord, sometimes I get fatigued,
just thinking of all I’ve to do
sometimes I am overwhelmed
meeting time lines, coming due.
For, I would so much rather,
just sit and listen to . . .
praise and worship songs
about my love for You.
Lord, sometimes I get weary,
thinking about the day ahead
for, I would so much rather . . .
just stay praying to You in bed!
~~~~~~~
” For I have satiated
the weary soul,
and I have replenished
every sorrowful soul.”

Thank you at the time I wrote it I was just venting to the Lord. I love to tell Him what it’s like and how I wish it were. He always reassures me to keep my eye on the prize for the treasure awaiting is worth the pressures of this life. I am now following your blog and looking forward to your God given inspirations. ~ Have a blessed day with Jesus ~
