A Bruised Heart ~

 

Feeling baffled,
a little confused
feeling’s hurting
heart’s been bruised?

Well God doesn’t want,
you to be crushed
so keep giving Him
your complete trust.

Feeling forsaken,
lost and alone
feeling’s exposed
right to the bone?

Well God doesn’t want,
you to feel distraught
so just give to Him
all your weary thoughts.

Feeling deceived,
wronged and misled
feeling’s raw
hurt is widespread?

Well call out to God,
tell Him how you feel
so your despair . . .
He can begin to heal!

Psalm 55:16

As for me,
I will call upon God;
and the Lord shall
save me.

You May Be Weak ~

You may be weak,
but, God is strong
you may be anxious
but, His patience is long.

You may be troubled,
but, God is not
you may be concern
but, He is never fraught.

You may be distraught,
but, God is not frantic
you may be desperate
but, He never panics.

You may be restless,
but, God never tires
you may give up
but, He never retires.

You may be weak,
weary every day . . .
but, with God’s strength
you’ll not faint away!

~~~~~~~~

Isaiah 40:29

He giveth power to the faint;
and to them that have no might
he increaseth strength.

God Gives Shade ~

God gives shade,
to us when weary
provides a cover
when we’re dreary.

He shadows us with,
His mighty wings
helps us to rise
above all things.

God gives shade,
to us when frayed
provides a screen
when burden lade.

He shields us with,
His right hand
holds us upright
when we can’t stand.

God gives shade,
to us when dismayed
so His glory on us . . .
can be displayed!

Psalm 121:5

“The Lord is thy keeper:
the Lord is thy shade upon
thy right hand.”

A Quiet Place ~

Thank You Lord,
for giving me
a place to go
when I’m weary.

A quiet spot,
for my mind
and Your peace
to come in line.

Thank You Lord,
for meeting me
when to You
I run and flee.

A hidden retreat,
for my heart
so more grace
You can impart.

Thank You Lord,
for being there
when I bring You
my daily care!

“The name of the Lord
is a strong tower:
the righteous runneth
into it, and is safe.”

God Will Save You ~

If right now things,
are looking down
and you don’t have
God’s peace around.

Then on God’s Word,
you will need to focus
so your trust in Him
can rise to the surface.

If Your situation seems,
bleak and hopeless
and you are feeling
weary and helpless.

Then on God’s strength,
you will need to call
for He will save you
before you can fall.

If right now you feel,
weak and defenseless
know that God will never
leave you powerless!
