despair

it is my companion

sometimes / often

sitting alone

small and huddled in my dark

invalidated

 

“Who is the better for you?”

“What good are you?”

“Why are you even here?”

“Where is your result?”

“When will you just give up?”

“How can God use you?”

 

it screams

taunts me with my uselessness

and yet

deep down

way below the storm

I know that this is true

 

despite my futility

I know God is

God always is

 

knowing God is sufficient

I can rest my life

safely in His care

 


Despair
