Being at Low Points with Faith

I'm sure we have all experienced it, that day we'd have been better off to spend in bed. Sometimes that might be the best thing to do. I am having a rough time staying on top of the Sea of Klonopin, but I'm handling it. What does get me down is how I'm almost worthless doing things. My coordination has not fully returned so putting things together doesn't work. Sometimes my typing is so bad I have to start all over again.

Then again, there are just periods in every persons life where they just be blue. The Klonopin helps me see that just being blue isn't a precursor of the end of the world. Before I would have dreaded falling into a deep depression, but now I know it's just a passing phase. Pass on please.

Also, I am almost worthless at prayer. The psalms put me to sleep, and my attention struggles to follow the words. It doesn't feel worthless to pray, just that right now I'd be a seriously bad prayer leader. I meant it's Easter week and where are my usual liturgical offerings?

Let's fix that


Where have You hidden Yourself,

And abandoned me to my sorrow, O my Beloved!

You have fled like the hart,

Having wounded me.

I ran after You, crying; but You were gone.
