Faithful



You are faithful,
despite my doubt.
I question
and make promises,
covenants,
with You,
I am too sinful to maintain.

And yet, You are faithful.

You soothe me
when I am anxious
and remind me
that your
covenants
have always been kept.

You embrace me
when I am defeated.
Pick me up
when I have been brought low.
You light the darkness
around me
and beckon me
to follow Your ways.

You are faithful
despite my denials.
I cling to my notions
as if they are Your will,
wandering as a lost sheep.

And yet You, O Lord, are faithful.
