God's Comfort and Peace In Times of Heartbreak

Life brings many a trial and tribulation
each day one never knows what's next
but God knows all about our plight
giving us His word in scripture text

Words of comfort to soothe one's soul
holding on close to the Lord of grace
who reminds us many times and again
'I am for you' to continue on your case

Never lose sight of God's perfect love
for all of His children the apple of His eye
His ways may be difficult but always best
He knows our every feeling whatever our cry

God is a God of quietness and peace
a peace that perfectly makes us rest
armed with HIs presence so divine
the Lord's way for you is always best

So no matter what wait on the Lord
be patient and rest in His hands
trust and obey in your sovereign Lord
together on firm ground forever stands

Thank you for letting your light shine for Jesus. I see you have sciatica. Patches from an Asian store called Salonpas works wonders. Very inexpensive.

Thanks again Vivien, glad you liked it, thanks for concern for me sciatica only lasted a month and no effects of it since as it came after a 6 week rash from head to foot which came after the completion of my prostate cancer treatment so think all were connected but feeling good now just feel a little tired at times. Have blessed day, Gordon
