Let's Put Our Faith In God!

Let’s Put Our Faith In God!



 



After losing everything, I wondered how



 my attitude would change.



 I noticed something I thought was



 peculiar and strange.



 



Other people’s attitudes I



 now began to see…



I seen just how inconsiderate they



 were of me!



 



A few offered Godly encouragement



 and a helping hand…



Many didn’t want to hear my problems



 or try to understand.



 



I soon realized that so much in life



 is done in “futility.”



If people lost their jobs like I did… 



What would be their security?



 



Perhaps just so many people are



 used to having good things.



Many haven’t had to endure the hardships



 that life often brings



 



Jesus…  You’re my strength and refuge! 



And this I know…



You’re with me every day!



 How I love YOU so!



 



With HIS help…  I and my family will endure!



He is the foundation of our home. 



True and secure!



 



Thank you Lord for bringing



peace to my heart!



You've been with me,



from the start!

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!
