I Was Angry Today Lord

I Was Angry Today Lord. I was angry today Lord, so I thought it best if I stayed away. You did not seem to hear what I asked You, though I longed for what I hoped that You would say. I was hurting today Lord, left drowning in a sea of despair. I came and hoped that You were listening as I prayed, and would somehow show how You care. I was doubting today Lord, felt that You had pushed me way to far. How could You cause this sorrow to befall me and still believe that I would trust in who You are. I was reaching out today Lord, so scared You would push me away, that You would not forgive my darkest thoughts, very fearful of what You might say. I started healing today Lord, but yet so small was the sign. Perhaps it was through the hearts of others I heard You say ‘Stay, precious one, I love you so much, you are Mine.’ Jayne McDonough 2008©

I have been writing poetry for several years, initially in reponse to friends in times of bereavement and those facing illness. I have tried to extend my subject matter as you will see, but initially wrote my poems to offer comfort and support. Thank...
