Just Called God... HE replied… WAIT…

At times gods reply is ‘Unanswered Prayers’ :)

Silent prayers, longingly I cried,

Lovingly, patiently Lord you replied,

Pleaded, please tell me about my fate,

And Master, all you said was ‘Wait’…

‘Wait , Lord I am tired of waiting ‘, my rpely,

‘Lord, I need answers, I need to know why,

Are my prayers being heard,

Being your child, I want your Word…

I wanna make some decisions before its too late,

And you still ask me to Wait,

All I need a ‘Yes’… A green sign,

Or a straight ‘No’, so that my tries is not a vain…

Remember Lord you had asked me to believe,

As its written, ‘Ask and You Shall Receive’…

I am asking since long, why the delay Lord, Why,

Before I go weary, I so need a reply…

I knelt down, bowed my head,

Trying to recall, what you once said,

But the word ‘Wait’ kept haunting me from inside,

Tried hard, but no clue could I find…

When I opened my eyes, I saw you Lord knelling down,

My face had all smiles, devoid of the prior frown,

You said, ‘It’s very easy for me to give you a sign’,

I can also help you to make choice, crooked paths I can align…

But would that help you know Me,

Would that help you be the child I want you to be,

Would you trust Me, just be happy knowing I am still there,

Would you seek Me or My Word in despair…

Yes, If I answer your prayer today, your pain will flee,

But will you ever learn when I say, ‘My grace should be sufficient for thee’,

I can still make your dreams come true,

But you will loose what I am trying to do for you…

So, My child, Be patient, and you will soon see,

The true gift is to know Me,

And though at times my answers do seem late,

But my answer to all your prayers is still…. ‘Wait’…
