I Do Not Understand

In me there is darkness, but in you there is light;
I am lonely, but you do not leave me;
I am feeble in heart, but with you there is help;
I am restless, but with you there is peace.
In me there is bitterness, but with you there is patience;
I do not understand your ways, but you know the way for me.

Dietrich Bonhoffer, Prayer From a Nazi Concentration Camp, 
(The Night Offices, p. 29)
