Struggles

I've endured many struggles in my life Seemed like my world would come to an end When my mom prayed for things to go right Still I was unsure when it would begin Things seem to be getting harder each day But I heard my Lord say child don't give up Those sound like words my mom would say I heard them both, but I have had enough I never wanted my children to know struggles Although their older and know what's going on I truly want them to succeed and do better This life can happen to anyone It let's you know God still gives tests I've had many test in my life, this is not my last one I will never give up I will pass this test He wants me to just understand This battle is not mine to stress And just to put it in his hands My struggles consumed me for awhile I cried til my eyes were red and swollen For my God and prayers are now my guide And this battle of struggles will soon be over
