God Is Near

When you're troubled in the night, God is near and you cannot see the light, God is near. Life's paths can be uncertain, you may fear shed a tear, but don't lose sight, God is near. If you search with all your heart, you will find that He hears you, fears take flight, God is near. When you look to God to guide, every day pray you'll know His love and light, God is near. Laura's burdens are His, so remember I'm His child, in Him delight, God is near. Written on 3/13/2016

This one really touched me and reminded me of His everlasting faithfulness. It's Hebrews 13: 5- "Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” Yes, God is near! Blessings to you!
