When the soul is weary,
and the heart is tired.
When you have that failing feeling,
that says " I can't take any more".
When you don't have the strength to lick your wound
and live to fight another day.
When there is no one to understand you
and you know you have lost them all.
When you are just about to give it up,
as your heart breaks into unrecognisable fragments.
That is when you go back to God,
Once again muttering your child-like prayer.
That is when the kneeling soul learns
that the listening Lord is there.
