It feels like everything is crashing
It feels like the walls are pressing in
It feels like the doors are closing
I am tired
======
I want a break
The walls are closing in
The pressure is mounting
And I am tired
======
All around me it is hard
People are struggling and wondering
Others are sad beyond measure
And I’m so, so tired
======
My neighbours have struggles too
Some have lost family
Some have lost jobs
It makes me so tired
======
In the middle of the challenges
And all the national happenings
It feels like too much to bear
Papa, I am so tired
======
I am tired of constant changes
I am tired of uncertainty
I am tired of the lack of clarity
I am tired
======
I am tired of fear
I am tired of doubt
I am tired of sadness
I am tired
======
I am tired of threats
I am tired of veiled words
I am tired of nuances
I am tired
======
I come to my Father
The one who is all knowing
The one who is all loving
I come to my Father
======
I know my Father cares
I know my Father is the Creator
I know my Father has a plan
So I come to my Father
======
In Him it is all well
I know my path is secure
I know there is hope
I come to my Father
======
I know it will all work
I know there is a plan
I know grace abounds
I come to my Father
======
So Father help me stand
Help me remain true
Help me honour you
I come to You, my Father
======
Move me out of tired
Lead me into trust
Guide me to Your truth
I come to You, my Father
======

This has resonated so precisely with me in this tiring season! I believe your magnificent poem reflects the mood in the hearts of multitudes today. Thank you for emphasising the hope we have in the promises of our caring Father, in spite of the pressures we are experiencing daily in this world. Your gift is a blessing.
To God alone be the glory…indeed Christ is our hope
