My prayers do not fall on deaf ears and yet they still go unanswered. I stack them one upon another in hopes that they might be seen from Heaven, but they just amass into a wall that casts a shadow over me. Is my heart not raw enough? Have I not yet reached rock bottom? My anguish is so strong it paralyzes me and confuses my thoughts. I’ll keep praying to my Lord and my God. I’ll lie face down at the next open window I can find and hope my prayers rise to your ears. I know you hear me, Lord. You’re ready with a response. I’ll wrestle with my patience while I wait. I’ll cry out for your love to come down and change my circumstances. Your silence makes me feel so far away. And yet, I know you’re always there. I’m the one who moved.
