The Rage of Man

When your life turned out to be a trash,
you lose direction in a sudden flash.
You turned away from Him,
all by yourself and live a life in dim.

You never look back from where you started,
and never recollect the good times you’ve shared.
You never remember the prayers He answered,
and never count the blessings He showered.

You thought He had forsaken you.
And took away your riches too.
You intuited He made you miserable,
and stole those instances that were enjoyable.

You believed He gave you castigation,
because you left Him and lose your conviction?
You considered He became so unfair,
because you see abundant happiness everywhere.

You felt He had abandoned you,
because you discerned you became untrue.
You refrained to call on Him when you’re in need,
and you stand firm with your words and deeds.

You neglected to trust Him when you’re in trouble,
and turned away when He catches you every time you fall.
You ignored the many times He lets you feel He’s near,
and closed your eyes when He conquers your fear.

You hated Him because you don’t have a place called home,
and cried too hard coz you have nothing to call your own.
You despised Him because your life has no meaning,
and blamed Him for all your sufferings.

You judged His love because of your weaknesses,
and lose your hope when you felt bitterness.
Your faith fainted when life became arduous,
and became hopeless when destiny was worst.

But some times in your life you should take time out,
and erase all your fears and doubts,
you can turn your back and walk in His ways,
and live your life with Him just like the old days.

You will realize that He never turns away from you
He is just hanging around watching over you!
He is so close to listen to your words
And His arms are wide open because He is a good Lord….
