How long, LORD, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry out to you, "Violence!" but you do not save? Habakkuk 1:2
Why have you brought her back? To torment me? I will not curse you for your ways are perfect.
If I lack patience please forgive me. My perseverance will not fail. My faith remains strong because of your Spirit.
How long must I wait for my help? Can't even 1 angel be spared to tell me your will, to ensure my path is straight?
What unseen spiritual battle rages behind the veil? What purpose do you have with me? Tell me so that I can endure with a joyful heart.
Make known the happiness that awaits so my soul can suffer this injustice a 1000 times over.
For you work all things together for my good because I love you, and love comes from you. All things under the sun are vanity without you.
If it be your will that I suffer so be it. Teach me in my agony, for although grace remains unaccepted and not returned under the sun, you taught me how to be graceful. Praise the LORD.
I lamented over Jerusalem, but you provided a miraculous path to the Jordan. Was this your purpose in bringing her back for a time? Praise the LORD.
I cried out to you over her as Israel cried for a king. You showed my heart what it was not missing. Your grace is enough. All things are made perfect in their time. Praise the LORD.
Thank you, sovereign God for setting eternity in the hearts of mankind. Without that glimpse the meanness would be too hard, the coldness too deep, and the rejection too much.
LORD come quickly! Remember your servant. I know my help is on the way. Praise the LORD.
