Here's a little something I wrote for an event at my church, it's something that I've been struggling with...chasing everything in this life but God...so yeah, here it is.
Dear God I'm always asking why
Why am I chasing all these things that never satisfy
Why do I tell myself you're good but then I doubt your plan
Why is this life something that seems so hard to understand
I've been chasing all the things in this life but you
But I'm supposed to give up everything because you want me to
God my heart is real heavy, it feels like you don't get me
I pray to you but sometimes it just feels like you neglect me
See deep down I know you're good, you want the best for me
The difficult times in my life serve as a test for me
Sometimes I'm crying out and I don't think you hear me
The times I really need you, I don't feel you near me
That's when I realize that I've been pushing you away
Turning my back to you and brushing off the things you say
I feel I only come to you when life becomes a mess
That's when I see how good you are cuz God you never left
Sometimes my faith gets shaky, having some doubts lately
Wondering if God really has my back to put it plainly
But man he does, in fact he always has
His love and grace is something I can never truly grasp
God I know that you're enough, why I am still searching
I know your love runs deep why am I still hurting
God I know you see the brokenness inside of me
In the darkness, you're the light that's always guiding me
I know you're working real hard to break the pride in me
I take for granted how much you really provide for me
God you somehow always find a way to speak to me
Your words keep breaking down my walls and sinking deep in me
I know this life is hard but God you're always there for me
The good and bad that I endure is cuz you care for me
While I've been chasing earth things, you've been pursuing me
That's how I stand before you now as the man you see
