No One Else Knows

My world is closing in

On the inside

But I'm not showing it

When all I am is crying out

I hold it in and fake a smile

Still I'm broken

I'm broken

Only one can understand

And only one can hold the hand

Of the broken

Of the broken

When no one else knows how I feel

Your love for me is proven real

When no one else cares where I've been

You run to me with outstretched hands

And You hold me in your arms

Again

I need no explanation of why me

I just need confirmation

Only You could understand the emptiness inside my head

I am falling

I am falling

I'm falling down upon my knees

To find the one who gives me peace

I am flyingLord I am flying

When no one else knows how I feel

Your love for me is proven real

When no one else cares where I've been

You run to me with outstretched hands

And You hold me in Your arms

Again

I have come to you in search of faith

Cause I can't see beyond this place

Oh You are God and I am man

So I'll leave it in Your hands

When no one else knows how I feel

Your love for me is proven real

When no one else cares where I've been

You run to me with outstretched hands

When no one else knows how I feel

Your love for me is proven real

When no one else cares where I've been

You run to me with outstretched hands

And You hold me in Your arms,

Ohh You hold me in Your arms,

I know that You'll hold me in Your arms

Again

Building 429 - No One Else Knows

My world is off kilter right now for reasons beyond my control. I'm not depressed; just aching to escape feelings that remain,regardless of my prayers for them to cease. Is this the thorn in my flesh? Was Paul's affliction physical or emotional? How did Job cope with the intense emotions that he felt throughout his trials? How often did Abraham and Sarah ache over their seemingly unanswered prayers? To these questions, I do not know the answers.

What I know for certain is that right now God's answer to my plea is "wait." Not the preferred answer but he is there to comfort me through this time of pain. He knows when I will see the end of it and I will trust him to guide me to the place he wants me to be. Right now, I will fall on my knees and seek rest in him.
