Jesus Wants Me To Trust Him!

Jesus Wants Me To Trust Him!

 

 

I was going through a difficult time…

Many “bad” thoughts  entered my mind!

 

It just seemed like nothing

in my life was right!

I would lay awake and cry

 day and night!

 

The things in life I loved so dear…

One by one…  Began to disappear!

 

At first I blamed God for things gong “wrong.”

 I knew this way of thinking didn’t belong!

 

Jesus spoke to my heart that very day.

I’ll never forget the words he had to say!

 

“Trust me!”  “Don’t lean unto your

own understanding!”

“There’s a life for you that

 I have been planting!”

 

A life filled with Godly things

 from heaven above.

A life blessed with his mercy,

grace and love!

 

After that, I never blamed God

for anything again!

I know that he is my comforter

 and my best friend!

 

I’m so glad that I trust him in all that I do!

During the “storms of life…”

 He’ll see me through!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
