cheetos and faith

boss i m facing a lull

in my faith life right now

a void in my quiet time

a lack of revelation

in my contemplation

no inspiration in my

dedication

in other words

all s quiet on the prayer front

when i study god s word

boss my mind is there

but my heart is gone

my body goes through the motions

but my spirit is

snuggled up in bed

there is no joy

no life no great love

no deep thoughts from above

oh it s miserable to be a mousy

christian without the joy of jesus

rocking your soul

so i went to pastor leroy beetle

to share my doleful dilemma

has some dark dreadful sin

entered your heart within says he

sin is always striving to get in

says me in all honesty
