In silence

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,

I shall not fear."

I rant.

I complain.

I cry.

I am stressed, troubled and

Uncertain.

I feel fear.

Hatred.

Betrayal.

The noise confuses me.

Alone.

I am hurt. Unappreciated.

I exhausted myself.

Too tired to even think nor breathe.

 

Suddenly,

You touched me.

And I became still.

The silence is deafening.

It is in silence that you spoke to me.

You were there all along.

Beckoning.

Patiently waiting.

Longing for me.

Loving me.

 

"Suffering is an option,

Happiness is a choice."

What will it be?

To suffer or to be happy?

Acceptance is the key.

 

Come.

Rest awaits in me.

 

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me.

I shall not fear."
