There is no known exhaustion,
Like the complete exhaustion,
Of trying far too long,
To make-believe and be strong.
When on the inside weakness screams!
Breaking the profound silence,
Where-in lays the corpse of cherished dreams.
This is the human condition,
A very bitter truth rendition,
At the hitting-bottom reality moment;
In agony lie there, in Pride’s torment!
Embraced truth is humility;
God’s strength survives our weakest moment.
You never really realize the power of God’s Holy Spirit until you are beleagured, beaten and there is literally nothing of yourself left.

I think that’s normal. Forward and then back a little but I’m sure you’ll be moving forward again soon.

I really enjoyed the tempo for this poem! It also speak truly to the exhaustion of unbelief/false belief.

Even when we believe, we can get caught up in trying to be more than we are. God brings us to the point of collapse so we will depend on Him. This was true in my moment of salvation and repeats itself during other times of crisis in my life.

Sometimes you need to reach rock bottom to truly appreciate God’s hand lifting you out of despair.

Yes, that’s so true. Jesus is the Sheppard of my soul and when He allows me to wander even that has a purpose. I hurt when I forget that but when He causes me to remember, I am restored.
Thank you for reading and commenting.
