“All I want is an answer to one prayer, a last request to be honored: Let God step on me—squash me like a bug, and be done with me for good. I’d at least have the satisfaction of not having blasphemed the Holy God, before being pressed past the limits. Where’s the strength to keep my hopes up? What future do I have to keep me going? Do you think I have nerves of steel? Do you think I’m made of iron? Do you think I can pull myself up by my bootstraps? Why, I don’t even have any boots!
Is there no help within me? And is success banished from me?
Am I not completely helpless? Haven’t my skills been taken away from me?
Have I no helper, and has my good sense deserted me?
Is it that my help is not within me, And that a good outcome is driven away from me?
