God…Are You There?

on September 27th, 2009 by Rae

*** This is a poem that I had read during a prayer circle that was being held at a church I sometimes attend.  I felt that I could relate to it a little bit. *** 

God…
Are you there?
I’ve been taught,
And told I ought to pray
But the doubt won’t go away;
Yet neither will my longing to
Be heard.
My soul sighs to deep for words.
Do you hear me?
God…are you there?
Are you where love is?
I don’t love well, or often, anything, or anyone.
But when I do, when I take the risk,
There’s a sudden awareness of all I’ve missed;
And it is good.
It’s singing good.
For a moment life seems as it should.
But, soon I forget, so busy soon,
That it was, or what, or whom.
- Ted Loder
