Notes About The Poem

I Was Lost

I was hopeless
God filled my heart
With hope that was always
Alive and positive
Optimistic beyond my dreams
Encouraging my ideas and beliefs
Promising, confident, expectant
Ever warm and reflective

I was doubtful
God filled my heart
With certainty, assurance
Sureness within
That His light will illuminate
My greatest faith,
Belief that frees me
From distrust and suspicion

I was angry
God filled my heart
With peace that brought me
A quiet light surrounding me
With grace and tranquility
The feeling that serenity
Lives within me
Where He is ever alive, stilling me

I was depressed
God filled my heart
With exhilaration awakening me
From the darkness
Freeing my spirit from fear
Stirring up light that reminds me
His love is forever blessing
Protecting me from misery

I was worried
God filled my heart
With comfort, stillness
That would bring me through
The apprehension and burden
Agonizing anxiety and concern
Assuring me of comfort
That would surround my soul

I was lost
God filled my heat
With His saving grace
Faith that would encourage me
To believe in the victory
That comes to those who accept
The love of a Savior, His Son
Who saves with His amazing love
