The Promises Made

I am scarred,
battered,
bruised.
My mind keeps showing me
God is here.
He has told me
through all the pain,
He will never lose,
and I will have all of the gain.
He shows me that I can be whole again. 
I will recover from my past.
All the pain and suffering 
is ending in my heart
because God has more than done His part.
So I will trust in the Lord with all my heart,
My understanding is not to be relied on.
In all my ways I will know Him
and my Great God will make 
my path straight.
