Dont Lose the Fight

When the road of life seems to be thorny and rough, When the darkness of the path seems to be endless and tough, Don’t lose the fight. When love ones and friends seem to be ungrateful and unkind, When their hearts seem to be uncaring and their notions seem to be misunderstanding yours, Don’t lose the fight. When the shadow of hope and the blanket of weariness abound, When the drop of happiness seems to be pouring the lake of loneliness, Don’t lose the fight! When the grief of tears seems to be shedding with hopelessness, When the deafening and outburst of your weeping seem to be unheard, Don’t lose the fight! When problems and trials seem to be the overflowing river, When the ocean of solutions to your cares seems to be a desert of drought, Don’t lose the fight! When the flock of your neighbors turn you down, When the deepest part of heart seems to be pierced with the knife of ridicule and punctured by unfair judgment and heartless words, Don’t you ever lose the fight! When everybody is out there yet nobody seems to be there for you, When you need someone to lean on yet a couch of stones and a slippery wall of uncertainty seem to be offered to you, Don’t damn yourself and lose the fight! God says, “Hang on my child to the thread of hope!’ “I am the light to your winding road, I am your Mighty Protector, I am your FOREVER bliss, I am your SOMEBODY standing by!” Don’t Lose The Fight. My humble servant, I am just behind your fight!

This is clap trap. God created us. So its all his fault. All the pain all the fear all the terror. its all his fault. He's the bad guy.

You have inspired me, Santiago. Couldn't sleep tonight with worries running through my head and I think God wanted me to read this poem. Thank you for the encouragement. He does present challenges for us to overcome, but God is always behind us in our struggles. Bless you, I think I can sleep now. Carolyn
