This was written at the same time as Forgiven. Again I'd had the idea for a while, but had to force myself to take time to write the poem out.
----------
Doubt
Why should I believe
I said to myself
If He exists He doesn’t care
He’s just put me on a shelf
Trials and pain
So much of my life
How could Christ
Allow so much strife
“You should believe,
Because you know I am here.”
This voice rings out
So crystal clear
“My life has been hell!”
I cry to the wind
“Why haven’t I seen you,
Where have you been?”
“No life is easy.
Take a look at mine.
I spoke to deaf ears
Who sent me to die.”
I paused and nodded
“Then why would you want me
After what I said
And refused to bend my knee?”
“Because I see your heart.
I’ve accepted you,
And forgiven your sins.
Now you accept me too.”
“I will Lord
In all I do.
I will seek.
I will be true.”
My doubt is gone
Absent from my heart
I accept you, Christ
And receive a new start
