God with His grace reigns in my sigh* story
allowing relief-breath of victory
that grants pardon goodness from confessed sins
midst overwhelming guilt-filled misery.
In my anxieties causing grievous pain
sigh of complaints can’t deny my soul strain
acknowledged with own human nature flaws
needing the Lord’s comfort toward peace gain.
Impatient yearnings trigger panic sighs
making my blood pressure notably rise
as emotions swell against fear attack
hence, the Saviour I call for wise advice.
For stable health that sighs well-being, blest
my body enjoys Christ’s strengthening zest
inhaling and exhaling properly
exercising upon stamina-test.
Achievements expel sighs of fulfillments
my faith aspires in reaching-out moments
serving the Master by His love and might
conscious of limitations’ impairments.
Bondings with special child release sigh bliss
while witnessing his milestones I can’t miss
marked by self-control, combatting seizures
surely the Father above does notice.
Sighs of sweet trust conclude my everyday
fellowshipping with best Friend all the way
expressing gratitude, worship, and praise
for answered prayers --- whether yea or nay.
*Lamentations 1:11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for meat to relieve the soul: see, O LORD, and consider; for I am become vile.
