Last night my sadness woke me up
And I sobbed uncontrollably.
The world was sleeping
So I turned to the Lord for conversation.
"I feel like I'm getting my life together
Lord, except for these holes.
The losses I have had
Have left these holes in me
And now my life keeps seeping out the holes.

"I've tried filling the holes
With all kinds of things;
Busyness, food, sympathy, from others.
But nothing works.
I still have these holes."

And the grief from memories past
Enveloped me again
I sat rocking quietly
Trying to give comfort to my pain.
Wanting to gain understanding.
"This pain sure hurts, Lord."

And then as early morning came
I heard Him softly call my name.
With nail-scarred hands outstretched to me,
He said so very tenderly
"I HAVE HOLES TOO."

And then I knew,
He understood,
As no one could.
