Keep Me

Burdens overbearing and I don’t know what to do.
Trying so hard to understand why my heart  is feeling blue.
Looking at challenges all around and saying a silent prayer.
Lord keep me day by day I certainly know you care.
Keep my mind in perfect peace I ask this Lord of thee.
Shield me from the enemy so my mind can be at ease.

Mary I have those feelings too, then I look around and see those that are less fortunate as me and realize just how truly blessed I really am. I don't think God will put anymore on you than you can handle, this may be His way of bringing you back closer to Him. God Bless. Ron
