WHY AM I HERE

Why Am I Here

Why am I here Lord?
In a place where complacency has strangled my hopes and dreams?
In a place where trans-parent-sees me not?
Why am I here Lord?
In fact my transparency has abused and abandoned me me!
I am paralyzed by the troubles of today!
The faucet of my eyes run endlessly, creating streams of emptiness 
That many have drowned in!
Why am I here Lord??
I'm drowning in a empty place…
In a place where my tears have become tainted and stain 
everything they touch!
WHY AM I…...then I heard…..
“LOOK AGAIN, AND TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE?”
I replied, LORD, all I can see is death and destruction all around me!!
“LOOK AGAIN,” He said!
“WHERE YOU SEE TAINT; I SEE PAINT THAT'S NOT YET DRY!”
“THAT’S WHY YOU ARE HERE…”
“I SEE A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE OF PAIN, THAT I'VE ALLOWED TO
DRIP BEYOND THE CANVAS.”
“I-C-U INTENSELY…. AND I'VE PLACED YOU I'M MY INTENSIVE CARE!”
THAT'S WHY YOU ARE HERE…
“MY CHILD, I AM…. I-C-U!!!”
“I AM…. YOUR A.M AND P.M!!!”
“YOUR EMPTINESS WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A SURGING PLACE
THAT I HAVE SWEPT CLEAN TODAY!”
“MY CHILD, LEAN NOT TO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING, FOR TODAY
IS YOUR MIRACLE!!!”
“FOR TODAY, I AM… BRINGING YOU OUT OF I-C-U….”
AND THAT IS…. WHY YOU ARE HERE….”
