Trust

Seems like everyone else is posting a list of their blessings post-Thanksgiving, or expressing their pleasure over decorating for Christmas. I'm the odd one out with energy for neither. My thoughts these days are running more along this line...

To Trust You Is To Believe

Sometimes it seems impossible

To trust in you my Lord

But then again it’s all I have

When my backs against the wall

The pressures forever mounting up

And worsens with little hope

Though I pray and leave it with you

It’s so hard for me to cope

I know, O Lord, you teach us patience

Especially at those times

You want us to trust completely

Though answers are hard to find

And there are times it seems as though

You have stepped back from us

We feel so much alone in our mess

Not knowing you’re watching with love

You never really leave us Lord

Nor forsake us in our need

You only want us to trust you

And in your word believe

You know the circumstances we’re in

And know the struggles we face

The situation when given to you

Can empower our faltering faith

For in your word we’re told to give

To you all our anxieties

And all the worries and fears we have

Praying for the needed victory

For in due course you will come through

To bring the needed relief

And through it all we shall develop

A stronger and deeper belief
