Alone and Afraid
Alone and Afraid?
There was someone I knew,
alone and afraid...
Her husband left her…
She felt betrayed!
I remember seeing her look
of despair…
Was there anyone who
really cared?
This was a very
difficult situation.
A lot of heartache and frustration!
I remember seeing her
at church before.
But no one sees her anymore!
People would pass her by,
Seemingly, not concerned…
Even though things in her life,
had taken “the wrong turn.”
Aren’t we to help the widows
and single mothers too?
This is what God’s word
asks of me and you!
As the body of Christ...
We should serve one another.
Reaching out to the widow
and single mother.
We must let them know they’re
not forgotten!
Before their lives hit
“rock bottom”
This is a command Christ
Wants us to do!
He’d do the same for
ME and for YOU!
