Continued Prayers- A Poem by David Ritter

Have you ever wondered if God was listening?

I doubted that God would listen
I felt unworthy of His love
At times it felt the words I prayed
bounced off the ceiling above

Where are you? I would scowl
as I shook my fist at Him
And with each passing day
my faith in God grew dim

I wandered through the darkness
unable to do what’s right
I blamed God for all my troubles
but I yearned for His Light

Despite knowing “I” was the problem
the solution seemed far away
So out of sheer desperation
I would continue to pray

Sometimes tears replaced the words
to each constant prayer
and sometimes I would often question
does my God even care?

And then one day it finally happened
God revealed Himself to me
and showered me with His love
His grace and mercy

I now no longer question God
or His perfect will
And no matter what this life may bring
I will continue to pray…still
