Things are just not the same anymore.
Lord we need your help because when it rains,it pours.
Can't save anyone heck I am trying hard to save myself.
People are crying and dying while some are saying to God "Lord I need your help"
Seems not much going on the television except murder and poverty along with Government bickering and lying.
All I see around me is bad and it has kept me pretty much for sometimes trying.
Who in the world thought it will come to this.
Sometimes I feel worthless to the point that I don't think that I am worth spit.
Lord please rain down on me because it seems like the Enemy is constantly out for me.
I am trying to do your will Lord and be all I am and be what you want me to be.
Fighting and bickering for something worth nothing.
If you are going to fight,fight for peace and Love because that's worth something.
I am just writing my thoughts out loud as it comes to my brain.
I am just trying to live life,trying very hard to maintain.
I am not a poet just a writer I guess.
But I didn't plan on writing this,I wrote this in jest.
God is more than wonderful,powerful.loving and definitely always worth living for.
But God how come things just ain't the same anymore?

Thank you for pouring out your heart, Lanre. Our God is good and He will hold us up when we can't hold ourselves up. Nothing ever stays the same - we are either moving forward or backward. Just keep moving forward, my friend!
That is beautifully written and it took a lot of courage to post it! I know we all feel the same way sometimes but you're heading in the right direction by looking to the Lord - He will ALWAYS get you through! Thank you so so much for posting this.
Awesome post, Lanre...you ARE a poet, whether you know it or not. Keep the faith.
Beautiful post! Thanks for sharing and it really is true "things just aren't the same".But you know you must keep the faith and keep it moving!
Hang in there Lanre.
"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, or a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life."

This is beautiful Lanre and I suspect, no, I know, that there are many that take comfort in your words. Trust me, you are not the only one that is feeling this way. We all plaster smiles on our faces and trudge on but every know and then you just have to let it out - you did it beautifully and eloquently!
Lanre: Have added you, by name, to my prayer list. I pray for peace in your heart and prosperity in your life. You have chosen the Perfect Guide to see you through dark days and long, lonely nights. Keep your eyes on heaven. Remember you are never alone -- there are many feeling exactly the same and it is up to each of us to hold one another up. Blessings, my friend.
Beautifully written Lanre. Times sure are different right now in all aspects, everywhere we turn. I wish you strength and a light at the end of this short tunnel you're in... you WILL come out stronger the other end my friend !
Hang tough !
