Weekend Words & Sunday Stanzas – 04/19/2015
Cry out for wisdom, and get some help from Proverbial Thought.
Life can be hard. The Bible tells us it is the fault of humanity (Genesis 3, Romans 3) and promises it (John 16:33).
It is in John 16:33, and really all of John 14-17, we see the promise of the Holy Spirit and His peace:
“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
Life may be difficult, but all we need to do is rely on God. He has promised to help those who call on Him!
this life can be so hard
at times i am over whelmed
i find i want to cry
or that i might break down
my God
my God
i feel ready to give up
my strength has all but left me
please take from me this cup
yet i implore You
do not let me control this
though life may be hard for me
i want the character of Jesus
O Lord
O Father
grant some peace in this ordeal
my Daddy and my Lord
Your strength I need to feel
and though i want to quit
for my life feels too surreal
i will press on in Your Spirit
in Whom i am sealed
