In My Desperation

In my desperation 
I find hope
In my struggle 
I find peace
In my hurt and disappointment
I find comfort
And a renewed sense of belonging
In my brokenness
A desire to reach the only one that can help me
In my desperation 
I can see where man can not satisfy my longings
In my desperation 
All my hearts desires are recognized and fulfilled.
In all of this
I overcame because He overcame
He pulled me up instead of me pulling Him down
His love reached down to me as I was reaching up to Him.
JESUS
