A Little Encouragement

A Little Encouragement

When things crumble around me,
And it seems so hard to trust.
There is a voice the whispers;
“Oh, my child you must.”

I fight with doubt and failure;
Till it seems I cannot stand.
But Jesus in reassurance,
Tells me; “Child you can”.

I struggle for the answer;
And curse my humble fate.
But God in all his wisdom;
Gently whispers; “Wait”.

When storm clouds gather round me.
And I find no place to go.
When it seems I am forgotten.
My Father says “I know.

I give my all to Jesus.
My needs He will fulfill.
I need not fret or worry.
But Trust, My God, He Will.
