Intrisically, we are all connected to God, We don't doubt this when we are young, But doubt seeps in slowly, For years, Draining us of our faith The world is desolate, And in our sadness we also become depraved Looking for answers in the swamp, Seeking fresh water in it's toxic sludge, Sinking to our grave But only through Divine intervention, Were you pulled from quicksand An invisible hand, Lifted you up You felt the presence of inmeasurable love, Consoling you, For once, Finally, After all those years of despair, You have relief You breath the fresh air you once would desperately seek, You drink pure water And when you open your mouth to speak You hear the voice of truth bellowing through It's a curious thing, To turn your back on God, But be saved by grace, You are not a mistake, No matter who points and laughs and sneers There is a reason you are here, Welcome the warm embrace of the Divine, And trust me, You'll be fine.
