STILL WAITING

Lord, you know how long it's been.

Years, months, days, hours

praying

on my knees

begging

for her to be returned to me.

I mean, come on,

she doesn't live that far from here.

And from what I hear,

she not only goes to church,

but she sings in a worship band.

Is she not reading your word;

does she not know the ten commandments?

Did I do something wrong,

go too far, the opposite way?

Does she know that she is the very first thing I think about
when I wake, trying hard to remember the sweet smell of her hair?
Does she know how much my heart is breaking?
Just tell me, Lord, will I see her on this side,
or will I have to wait for eternity?
That's all that keeps me going,
you know,
is knowing

I THESSALONIANS 5:17

...PRAY CONTINUALLY...
