I Wanted To Know How You Are Doing
I Wanted To Know; “How Are You Doing?”
Someone wanted to know how I was doing…
He had no idea of the storms that “were brewing.”
I simply answered; “everything’s going fine.”
I had quite a few things
“on my mind!”
It just seemed like everything
“came crashing around.”
I needed someone to pick me up,
when I was “down.”
I then felt a gentle voice
whispered into my ear…
“Do not be discouraged.” “I am here!”
I looked all around, and much to my surprise..
This same voice then said;
“get up and arise!”
As I arose, I felt someone’s hand
on my shoulder.
It was like this hand had
removed a “large boulder.”
I had heard this voice before! I heard it again!
This was the voice of the one
I call my lord and friend!
The words he spoke to me were
quite evident and clear.
Whatever situation I am in.
He is always near!
Every step that I take.
Every breath that I breathe.
Jesus has promised me
he will never leave!
He has strengthened me,
and “blew my storms away!”
And has brought hope and healing
to my life today!
