Im having such a hard time. I cannot stop crying. I cry going pee, I cry getting dressed, I cry standing. Im so mad at God, which makes me feel even worse. I want to yell at him, to not talk to him anymore. I am confused as to what he wants, I pray every single day, I talk to him multiple times a day. When we found out we were pregnant I prayed almost every hours for our baby. What happens to those prayers? Those breaths wasted? The thoughts pushed away? Why does God answer some but not others. Its so hard for me to believe or even want to have faith right now. My body hurts and I feel alone, abandoned. I cant help but feel this way. I don't want to feel this way, of course Id much rather wake up and be happy and say ok Lord its ok give me strength to get through this and the day, but I cant. Instead I am angry and numb. I just don't understand, I don't see any justice, I see so many other people who don't have god and they have so much, maybe they really have nothing but maybe I want nothing to have dreams come true.
I hate the thoughts in my head. I hate being mad at God, he was the only person who stood by my side my entire life. I don't want to ask God for strength because Im mad at him and he didn't listen to my earlier prayers. So many thoughts are going through my head. Im so so sad and upset. I never cry, yet I cant seem to stop the steady flow of fluid from my eyes. My whole life the one thing I knew for sure was that I wanted to have kids, I made good choices and got educated found a job where I could support kids and now what? Now its all pointless. I don't understand his will, I don't know if I even want to. Its so hard to believe that his will is better than mine. That his will always trumph mine. The only decision we have in this world is suicide. Thats the only plan Im sure God doesn't make for anyone. Maybe that and faith, he cant force people to believe in him.
Im not ready to be fine, to mend that relationship, to tell God that he knows best, Im not ready. Being mad does nothing for me either. It will only make me more bitter and more walled off from the world and also God.
I hope this poem helps me. Im grasping at air right now, and need to find a hand to hold onto.. Lord be that hand. I am so hurt by you, but I need you, and Love you.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the LORD.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of
his life there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he
questioned the LORD about it:
"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life,
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when
I needed you most you would leave me."
The LORD replied:
"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
he was walking along the beach with the LORD.
