My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Posted on by asherdc89

Why have you not heard my cries, and answered my prayers?

Why are you so far from saving me?

I have tried to draw near to you. But it is like you are not drawing nearer to me. You seem so far and so distant from me. I find no comfort in your word. And it is like I am speaking to a brick wall, whenever I pray to you. 

My heart has been so greatly wronged. Like a rag being continuously pulled on both ends and twisted to strain it of water. As my soul deeply moans with incomprehensible grief and distress. I have wept, pouring my heart out before you. 

I am constantly stretch to a breaking point. It is like the stress could either cause me to go insane or kill me. I feel so demotivated and uninspired to move. Feeling like to do nothing on top of it. I feel so numb, and not present in the moment. As though I am on auto pilot all the time.

Hardened not my heart against you. Allow me to rest for a time from all my pain, misery and suffering. To heal and process all of what I have been through. I need you to reach and grab my hand to save me from drowning in despair. In Jesus Christ name, I ask and I pray Amen.

Since 2010, I've experienced promptings, encouragement as well as assistance from the Holy Spirit. The promptings led me to the word of God. This was the start of my own personal journey as I sought after the truth. God was then calling me as I sought after the truth according to His word. The truth was leading me to the decision to give my life to Him. I gave my life to God on the 28th of January 2012. Instantly, I had the desire to share with others the truth of God, that God is a God of love, truth, righteousness, holiness, mercy and justice. I couldn't keep something like this to myself in a lost and dying world, a world in a fallen state, and a world steeped in confusion concerning the view of who God is. My journey wasn't without struggle though, I realised through suffering we come to know God. To not only be humble, but to be empathic and not detached from people who are suffering. Sometime in 2012, God inspired me to become a writer just after my prayer to fulfill my purpose, the purpose of the reason of my existence. My prayer was a reflection of Isaiah 43:1-7. So I started writing essays pertaining to His word. I shared what I wrote with my family and friends. Therefore, the aspiration to help people globally, came with the realisation to give God the honour and the glory. To be part of making a difference. The inspiration to start blogging was impressed upon me to do. Through prayerful guidence, I believe God has led me to this point, which I believe is for His glory.
