Are You Having A Hard Time?   Try Jesus!

 

Life brings many trials and difficult situations.

Many times it happens with no explanation!

 

Whatever I possess brings no true security.

I’ve been there when everyone has left me!

 

The uncertainties I’ve had and struggles I face.

Have brought me to prayer, in a “quiet” place.

 

The journeys I’ve traveled and the storms ahead.

Have brought worry and stress in what I said.

 

                     The struggles and trials I faced...  I often cried!

A comfort and strength, Jesus did provide!

 

                   I know a truth that’s important and most certain.                  

Jesus can take away any hardship or burden!

 

If there were no trials, how could I trust him?

Because of what he’s done…  How much I love him!

 

If I had no hardships or trials, I’d probably forget him.

Giving him my whole life?  I decided to let him!

 

He’s proven beyond any doubt how much he loves me!

He reached down from heaven and blessed me!

 

He’s my comfort and joy and enduring friend!

He’ll be there with me…  Till the very end!

 

This Jesus I know.  I recommend him to you!

He is God!  Our provider! This is so true!

 

Won’t you give him a chance in your life today!

He can bring hope and take

 the dark clouds away!

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!
