Why?

Why?

Terrified and trembling,
I went forth today,
Seeking an escape
from the turmoil inside of me
My vision clouded,
dimmed by fear’s haze,
But then, my eyes caught sight
I saw the tip of the iceberg.
But I was already too far away
so I was sinking into
the depths of the ocean,
Suddenly, a rescuer arrived,
setting me free from drowning.
Though I didn’t see Him,
I felt His guiding hand,
“Why wouldn’t You let me drown?”
I asked, surprised.
He didn’t reply,
but I understood deep within
His love for me cut deeper
than my mortal sin.
