When being hu


If there is no one else here, why do I exist?

The absolute, travelling truth

Reality to keep life in perspective

All is good because all is God.

While the reasoning is unclear here,

I had enough truth in the light

To stay faithful at night.

 

The loneliness calls for a strength

Endurance and vision beyond my human capabilities,

So I must draw from a source that surpasses my limitations.

Only one exists.

 

Without this truth, pain is controlling

With it, I recognize my lack of control

And I surrender to the One who controls

Who’s definition is infinite loving-kindness.

Without this, what is the reason for my existence?

Especially if I’m on an Island...

An account to justify my life

To help me accept the love He has to give.
