This song always touches me in a deep way. It truly describes my thoughts and feelings.  I almost feel like she wrote the blasted thing for me.  It is encouraging to know that someone else out there is walking around in a confused daze…wondering why the paths are turning in the manner that they are. For those who do not know this song…it is a song about God and the Christian walk and the valleys we encounter. I am going through that now.  I just feel lost and confused.  I lack the discipline required to grow.  I don’t understand why I just cannot buckle down.  Laziness I suppose.  But that just seems like such a pathetic excuse.

I remember over the summer I was so in tune with God that I literally could hear his still small voice.  It was the most amazing thing!  I felt so alive, so rejuvenated and in touch with him.  Nothing could steal my joy or authority through him.  And then somehow I took a missed step…I am not sure when it happened. But I now find myself in a sea of fog.  I feel almost broken…I want to be back in the light again…but I feel like I’m pulling dead weight.  There seems to be no motivation.  I need prayer. I need support.  I suppose it may be that I have no friends or even acquaintances who are saved.  Not sure why… but at this moment I feel alone in “a world that is not my home”.

Ginny Owens - If You Want Me To Lyrics
 
The pathway is broken
And the signs are unclear 
And I don’t know the reason why you brought me here
But just because you love me the way that you do
I’m gonna walk through the valley
If you want me to
 
  Chorus:
 
Causei’m not who I was
When I took my first step
And I’m clinging to the promise you’re not through with me yet
So if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will go through the fire
If you want me to
 
It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that’s not my home
But you never said it would be easy
You only said I’d never go alone
So when the whole world turns against me
And I’m all by myself
And I can’t hear you answer my cries for help
I’ll remember the suffering your love put you through
And I will go through the valley
If you want me to

This is an oldie but goodie. J  I love sitting in my car and just 
banging my head on the steering wheel as I listen to this song 
full blast! LOL.  Just jokes...Here is a portion of the lyrics…
 
LINKIN PARK LYRICS
"Numb"
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)

[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

[Chorus]
I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

hey sweetie =) things are better now. i like that lyrics of the song. =)

so i hope you'd keep the smile in your heart. take care and all the best. a hug goes to you and yours

Hey there siter. I know how you feel cuz I'm feeling exactly the same. You are not alone in this walk sister. Many of us are in the Spiritual desert too. But we have to cling on the God's Truth, the He never left us because He is in us, in our very hearts even though we can't feel Him sometime. Persevere sister. I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus, that we'll be able to grow stronger through this trial we face, amen. :)

Hebrews 10:35-37 (NLT)
Do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord, no matter what happens. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.

"For in just a little while, the Coming One will come and not delay.

These poems are written by my sister in Christ, Yi Qing as she was inspired by the Lord Himself. I pray in Jesus name, that you'll be blessed as well, amen.

When God Doesn't Seem To Be Near

"Do you need a sign to feel I’m there,
To be really sure that I do care?
I’m the air you breathe, I’m all around,
I’m there even when things are upside down.

You may not feel that I’m all that near,
No matter how you strain to hear.
But…the eternal Truth will always be true,
That no matter what you feel, I truly love you.

Maybe this is the part you don’t understand,
Why is it you need My help but can’t see My hand.
It’s because, you’ve missed this vital part,
That the reason is because I live…in your heart.

Don’t just reach out to a space so far,
Reach within, into the very core of who you are.
When you believe Me, you ushered Me in,
So when you’re desperate for me, search within.

I’m the reason you live, you belong to Me,
And if you let Me, I’ll live in you and you in Me,
Abide in Me and see, that I will be your God for eternity" says the Lord.

To Whoever’s Out There…

When you’re depressed and feeling lost,
Everything you believe is questioned.
You wonder and wonder if life’s worth it’s cost,
Cuz in everything you just don’t get the connection.

The world is cold, twitched and dark,
Whatever smile you have is fake.
You feel you have nothing actually,
And all that you actually have are lost.

In that deep despair you loose your strength,
You don’t run, you don’t hide.
It all seems so pointless to you,
Cuz something is eating you on the inside.

You think you’re crazy, you think you’d die,
You don’t want to face tomorrow.
You need something beyond yourself,
Yet you try to hide all your sorrows.
Thinking that no one cares…no one understands,
Everything is cruel, just wrong and pointless.

But a knock comes at the door of your heart,
You refuse to be bothered.
An envel

Second Poem:

To Whoever’s Out There…

When you’re depressed and feeling lost,
Everything you believe is questioned.
You wonder and wonder if life’s worth it’s cost,
Cuz in everything you just don’t get the connection.

The world is cold, twitched and dark,
Whatever smile you have is fake.
You feel you have nothing actually,
And all that you actually have are lost.

In that deep despair you loose your strength,
You don’t run, you don’t hide.
It all seems so pointless to you,
Cuz something is eating you on the inside.

You think you’re crazy, you think you’d die,
You don’t want to face tomorrow.
You need something beyond yourself,
Yet you try to hide all your sorrows.
Thinking that no one cares…no one understands,
Everything is cruel, just wrong and pointless.

But a knock comes at the door of your heart,
You refuse to be bothered.
An envelope is slipped in under the door,
Just the sight of it makes you feel warmer.

You opened it despite yourself,
It’s a handwriting you don’t recognize.
You read the poem written inside,
And tears flooded your eyes.

Your questions remain unanswered,
Your accusations unjustified.
Nothing is explained, nothing is changed.
Except that now, those are of second importance.

You still don’t understand,
But you’re somehow stronger,
No longer screaming on the inside.
Something in the poem,
Something God said,
Just touched you deeper,
Than anything else would,
Deeper than you had though possible.
Truly…God is a God of Miracles,
Since He has healed your hurting heart…
