My life sometimes feels like an unrelenting tale of Hard Things. At times I feel like I really have no idea what to do with situations Life has thrown at me. Sometimes all I want to do/and do is hide under the covers and cry. But when I remember how Jesus really does know all I go through, I feel a little less alone and things get a little easier, a little more tolerable. So, whatever troubles your mind today, invite the Savior into your journey and He will gladly help.
Where do you turn when life feels so black?
And no one you know at all has your back?
When long is the day and longer the night,
And each one filled with tumultuous fright?
When the storms around you continue to blow,
And it seems there is no safe place to go?
Do you turn to things of worldly relief?
That are really disguised sneaky peace thief’s?
That promise respite and shelter for you,
But really the dark and storms they accrue.
Where “friends” are not – quite what they seem,
And the things that you long for they’ll never esteem.
Well, take my hand and instead turn to Him.
The one with the strength and the beautiful grin.
Who bore the storms and troubles for you,
And knows exactly what you go through.
Whose peace is exactly what your heart longs to find –
The kind that truly envelopes you mind.
Whose road may not be the easiest way,
But the one to be on when your deep in dismay.
He’s truly the very best kind of friend –
The only one who can truly amend
Each of the troubles and strife’s that you bare –
He’ll heal and he’ll tend each one with great care.
For He truly is the Great Prince of Peace.
The only one who can make your storms cease.
