Mortification
We Are Not Promised Another Tomorrow
Never have I experienced such a loss as I have received today.
I know not where to turn I can only kneel and pray.
Oh my God, please hear my plea, and show me the way!
Life is terminal, and oh so unpredictable. Am I expected to pick up the broken
Pieces of my life, and on this earth till the end of my day?
Lord, truly I do not believe I am unable to move forward.
And I wonder; am I being punished for being inattentive to You, my Lord?
For I feel a pain in my heart as a sharpness equal to a mighty sword.
My soul cries out “Help me Lord for I cannot go on without my family.
You took them Lord, but why not me? The boat on which they sailed capsized out at Sea.
My promise to You, my God, is that should You come and stay within me, I will live my life
In a way most pleasing to Thee.
My heart longs to be with You and my family.
