Hosea 13:6

When I fed them, they were satisfied;
when they were satisfied, they became proud;
then they forgot me.


Heavenly Father,

When our lives have fallen apart and we have nowhere else to turn we turn to you,
We fall to our knees and pray from the depths of our hearts seeking you to help us get through.

Then through your love, mercy and grace you hear our prayers and lift us up,
And pour out your living waters to restore us and fill our cup.

Once the storm has passed and peace is found within we stand back to our feet,
And we fill with relief and brush ourselves off from the near defeat.

It is strange how quickly we do forget who came and rescued us in that day,
And suddenly we know longer fall to our knees, or have a need to pray.

We revert back to our old ways that caused our chaos in the first place,
And neglect to remember to give Glory to you for your saving grace.

Then time passes quickly and we find ourselves back there again,
Where through despair and anguish we seek you to rescue us and be our friend.

It is an ongoing cycle that never seems to end, nor do we learn,
That each time it was you that carried us through when we had concern.

I pray throughout my day and night always giving Glory unto you,
And never will I forget how tragic my life truly would be,
if you weren't there with me to carry me through.

God Bless,
Gina
