Keep it together today,
tomorrow will be better.
In suffering we grow He says,
yet I feel weak rather than mightier.
Perhaps it’s not yet the peak,
there’s a way to go.
How far does He wish to push me?
I wish I could know.
The right words are in my mind,
but little comfort do I feel from those.
Faith and hope are powerful tools,
if only I remember to keep them close.
I have their love and struggles to contend with,
my own I must lay low.
But then, at least their paths
will surely be better than before.

I see a lot of internal strife. I hope you can pull through in the end. Many thanks for this beauty.

Awesome poem. I could so relate. Life is just plain HARD sometimes. Hang in there, I just said a quick prayer for you. Remember, we may indeed not have what it takes on our own, but God is great and will supply our needs (Philippians 4:19)
ReplyDeleteI can attest that I have become stronger from all the pain. Wish I could have bypassed the pain but I guess it just doesn't work that way. Take gentle care of you... ☺:)
ReplyDeleteI loved this, and it's all very true! But, no matter what little hardships come our way, we manage to get through them!
ReplyDeleteBig hugs!
Thank you for the encouragement. Blessings to you.
