I try to examine difficult situations using wisdom
     As no easy answers ever seem to be obtained
     In fact the more I stop to consider all the options
     Confusion slowly settles in keeping me restrained

     Brain cells stir rapidly bringing questions to mind
     Should I do this, maybe I should do that instead
     The future results could effect people unknown
     Pondering "what if' continuously within my head

     Emotions and feelings can provide the confidence
     Stemming up through the body from the sunken heart
     Then the mind provides logic mixed with reasoning
     Binding up quick responses, trapped from the start

     Where do I turn when confronted with this turmoil
     To whom in this world can I believe in with trust
     Hypocrites with opinions centered around themselves
     Subjecting me to the focus of gossip brings disgust

     I'm so thankful that I have an intimate relationship
     Allowing me to share the agony of suffering in this life
     It's situations like these I sincerely know where to go
     Bearing a cross with overwhelming joy instead of strife

     Coming before the Throne of a blood saturated cross
     Removes the weight of worrisome lack of judgement
     A forgiving God loving me shall be who I solely trust
     Offering Him my prayers to receive sacred discernment

     Father I bring this troubled heart graciously to You
     Please show me Your will, confident that You provide
     My understanding would only be influenced by Satan
     It's Your loving words of assurance of which I confide

     A prideful society neglects the contents of their heart
     While You lay with me here in this garden, others sleep
     I know that the depth of valleys can be seemingly low
     For with You though there is no mountain too steep
