Looking back in my journal
I see the goodness of God
I see desperate prayers
About who I am, about my situation
Answered a few pages later
I see that God has been speaking to me
That there is a theme to His messages
My doubts of hearing from Him are totally unfounded
I see my current emotions
Written in the pages before
And I am comforted that I can go through this again
My despondency lifts
My weariness vanishes
My sleeping faith awakes
And my dying joy is resurrected
