Poem written when I felt far from God and unsure of His direction for my life. |
| Every thought, every word is held back, tainted by doubt, by fear. I know Your strong, unfailing arms are always ready to catch me... but what if I won't let you? I wish that I could leap into the sky with the confidence of a bird, unintimidated by the distance of the ground below, and that I could see (clearly) Your love, Your plan and how I am supposed to fit into it. But instead, I'm kneeling in the dirt, squinting into the sky and trying to find You. Where are You, God? Where am I supposed to look? Frustration and dissatisfaction plague my fading life. I want to know so much more, to do something with my life... to make it worthy of Your sacrifice. But I've been turning in circles, forever distant from You. The same doubts, the same weaknesses find me and the same Kim as yesterday, last fall and a year ago... is reaching out to You, once again. Should I thus be comforted in the consistency of my inconsistency? |
