God Will Provide Poem by Danny Speicher

Long, I've sat in dark spiritual silence
Waiting upon the answers from above
Long, had I wondered if He truly cared
Doubting if I would, again, see His love
Troubles, they came as a hailstorm of fear
Not knowing when to run or when to stay
I'd lost my compass and I'd lost my guide
Questioning each footstep along the way
But, when the darkness became most blinding
And, when the storm had enveloped my soul
I, in my hopelessness and confusion
Cried out to the One who can make me whole
It was in that hour I again saw the Light
It started out as a flicker of trust
Growing into a flame of faith in Him
And knowledge that His provision is just
It was in my newfound recognition
That I now knew that I was blessed, indeed
'God will provide, ' I soon remembered
And, forever, this truth shall be my creed
