Are you ever weighed down by your trials in life? Do you ever find it hard to serve others? Been there done that right there with you friend. It’s not always easy. I think it was meant to be that way. Anyone who has ever been served during their own hard times (hopefully) can understand the value and appreciation of service to others. Never fear what you may be sacrificing when you serve others, for when you serve you share the Savior’s light and that is always worth it.
Sometimes I wonder just “Why me?”
And if someday I’ll ever be
More than lost within the fray,
More than what I am today.
Will I have more strength to bear?
Will I have more love to share?
Then someone kindly reaches out,
And stays with me all throughout,
And again, I feel the Savior’s love
That strengthens me to let go of
The hurt, the pain that weighs me down.
The feel of being complete broke down.
And in the place where pain once filled
I feel strength and love have been refilled.
Gratitude, humility,
And faith with a bit more unbreakability.
My eyes then open – see the worth
Of these hard times I’ve had while here on Earth.
Of the person that I am
Of the strength of that lowly Lamb.
And I realize what he needs of me –
To strengthen others on bended knee,
What his followers try to convey,
What we each should try to portray –
Kindness, love, humility,
And a great willingness just to be
His hands to those who feel run down,
His hands to those who feel weighed down.
To serve with great tenacity.
To love with great capacity.
When we understand these things
We’re lifted up on angel’s wings.
So, with this faith I go to serve –
Maybe more than some deserve –
But in the end, it’s all alright
Because I shared the Savior’s Light.
