Dearest Father,
I am in a mess right now. Things are getting clumsy, my path is dark and slippery. Things have gone hardware. Everything seems to fall apart before my very eyes.
Everyone I clinged unto have tried their able best and have left me to myself. They have shown me the extend of their love and I am very grateful to them for that.
My eyes are cloudy, my heart is heavy, my head aches. The unknown gets me worried, I am black and blemish. The land beneath me seems to give way, the sky above me darkened, anywhere I turn to seems to turn its back on me. Everyone I look up to seems to turn me down. Men have failed me, parents have deserted me, friends relished me, foes mocked and laughed me to scorn.
Father, you know me better than I myself. I am fragile and delicate in and at heart. Little things tend to affect me easily. This doesn't mean I am no better others who face greater or lesser than this but my nature, features, texture and structure lets me down.
I love the way you created me but that's what makes me dependent on you. Like your last born, I have come to You. You are my last resort, though I know I ought to talk to You first but I deviated from Your path and ways. I have swayed from You and I have parted ways with You.
I have come to realize that the farther and further I go, the dearest and closest I see the need for You. Just as I can't run from my shadows so also I can't from Your watchdog. Every passing day fills me with the desire to be by Your side and You at mine too. Sorrow and weakness of heart had driven me to a lonely life. Though failure is not final and success is not sudden, You have always said to me yet they still make me shiver.
Father, I do have many things to accomplish in life such as I need to complete my academics, fulfil my purpose on earth and work to earn. But Daddy, right now they seems so bleak and uncertain. I have come to a T-junction that I don't know which way leads to my desired destination. I know You to be the All-knowing, The Road Map, The Guiding Lamp, My Shield and Buckles, The Way, The Truth and The Life.
Daddy, I have come bending before Your Throne of mercy. What is it that I have done that is hindering Your ceaseless flow through, to and in me? What must I do to correct and align my ways to Yours, oh Father?
In this my little life, I have seen and tasted so many things. I have experienced alto. I know You are breaking, baking and moulding me. I do know that these processes are demanding, challenging and draining. They are strength-sapping, energy-drilling, but Father, please grant me fortitude, stamina and ability to carry on because I am weak and heavy laddened. The weight of my experiences are breaking and wearing me. I am pressed, bruised on every side by them. Help me to continually see You-The Glory behind my story, The Joy behind the gloomy day, The Sun at the end of the dark night, The Shining Lining at the end of the tunnel, The Glorious end at the jeering bend. Oh Father save me; Rescue me; Uphold me; Deliver me; Distinguish me; Glorify Yourself in me; Salvage my glorious destiny; endear me to Your warmest arms; Help me.
Thank You Delightsome Dad for answering my innermost, deepest, unseen heart cry.
Indeed life is in stages and men in sizes!
Yours Apple of Your Eyes,
OSIAKO GRACE OF GOD IJESUNIMEGA.
REST in PEACE!!
