Where Was God?

Where was God when I was in the midst of screaming arguments and raging fits?

Where was God when I was beaten on the inside, shaking my fists?

Where was God when I was shoved to the back, forgotten, name called, abused and spit on?

Where was God when I cried in the rain with no shoulder to lean on?

Where was God when I looked at myself and saw nothing left?

Nothing but a shattered child a wounded heart, a soul defiled.

Rejected, forsaken, a life of misfortune

Where was God when I felt all this torture?

I frantically yelled, “God where were you in this?”

He answered me softly, Daughter I confess,

The world will beat you and batter you down. 

It will fight you until you surely breakdown.

But daughter don’t you know that I’ve been here since the beginning,

I loved you the most even while you were sinning.

I held you close, wiped the the tears from your face, 

I made you feel peace instead of disgrace

I died on the cross, I took YOUR place

I came from glory to step in your shoes

I stepped from my thrown into darkness for you, 

I took each nail with you in mind..

So that one day in me you would confide..

Each time you were hurt, with you I cried..

When you are angry, its for you that I fight

Each step you take I am holding your hand

I created you, you are the works of my hands,

I will lead you and guide you into all truth.

I’ve been here the whole time waiting for you

Allow me to take your pain and your strife,

Allow me to be savior, Deliverer and Lord of your Life!!!
