Poem
Reminded that God sees me groaning in pain
Whenever I languish in gloom, and in misery remain
Earnestly hoping for His miracle to gain...
Now, I triumph in Him* for working in me around His love’s domain
…Since before, in frustration, my heart was terribly slain!

Exhorted that God hears me crying for divine support
Whenever I excruciate in my downfall’s hurts along shame’s discomfort
Sorrowfully begging for His help, my ultimate resort...
Now, I praise Him for leading me to kneel humbly before His gracious fort
…Since before, into anguish depths, my faith fell short!

Admonished that God knows me pleading for urgent care
Whenever I beseech for His assured welfare due to discontentment’s scare
Desperately longing for His promises I treat as rare...
Now, I thank Him for bringing me to His throne of blessings' share
…Since before, blinded by self-pity, my soul wallowed in despair!  

Encouraged that God understands me sighing anxiously
Whenever I express my complaints; murmuring about unfairness grudgingly
Unreasonably asking for His answers to my questions bitterly...
Now, I worship Him for counseling me to seek His wisdom meaningfully
…Since before, deceived with hypocrisy, my intellect was filled with folly!

Reproved that God meets me midst my frustration
Whenever I succumb to sins’ oppression of welcoming exasperation
Sincerely craving for His pardon’s restoration...
Now, I adore Him for granting me forgiveness toward my transformation
…Since before, due to iniquity, my spirituality was doomed by guilt’s execution! 

Charged that God regards me cringing in difficulty
Whenever I mourn over my self-inflicted calamity and physical infirmity
Wholeheartedly yearning for His cheerful as well as prudent certainty…
Now, I honor Him for upholding me with His mercy to enjoy health’s stability
…Since before, because of vexing doubts, my mind was robbed of serenity!

Rebuked that God deals well with me along my weakness
Whenever I struggle to move on after failures and fruitlessness
Grievously demanding for His response to my neediness...
Now, I esteem Him for reaching out toward me against weariness
…Since before, gripped by haughtiness, my service lost its effectiveness!

*Psalm 92:4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
