There Is Always Hope
The bills are overdue,
And the cupboards are bare.
Junior is in need of a new pair of shoes
But there is no extra money that can be spared.
The car is out of gas again,
Sadly, you have no money to fill up the tank.
Looks like you will be walking to work again
Lord, know you are in need of a break!
The boss at your job is giving you grief,
Saying your productivity is low.
He has said that if things do not change quickly
He will have no other choice but to let you go.
And when you think things just cannot get any worse,
Little Sally has come down sick with strep throat.
She needs to see a doctor but you have no medical insurance
You then start to lose all hope.
But there always seems to be hope,
During times when it seems to be none.
Because it seems that the battle is too hard to be won.
But you have a Helper that sits high above,
The Comforter that is there when you are down.
In Him you can confidently place all of your trust
He will lift you up and place your feet firmly back on solid ground.
You feel scared, weak, and weary,
And that is all okay.
Believe me when I say that He is all-knowing
Of the struggles and trials you face every day.
Just take a quiet moment,
And open the flood gates of your heart to Him.
He is always there to listen
So just open up your heart and talk to Him.
He is able to make a way out of no way,
He is able to replenish all of your strength.
He is able to hold all of your problems at bay
He is able to provide all of Your needs.
So lift your head up high,
Because you will not be in your storm for too long.
Go on ahead and dry your teary eyes
Because there is always hope when it seems to be none.
