During times when the shadows cross over my soul,
I wonder if writing’s a blessing or curse.
I find disappointing events that unfold,
And yet I keep sharing words written in verse.
Perhaps it is helpful to write it all down,
Both the good and the bad, everything that I feel.
Should I only share smiles, and keep silent the frown?
I think it’s important to always be real.
The Lord knows when I’m weary, in need of His peace.
He offers to help me to carry the load.
He steadies my soul, and my burdens decrease.
With Him at my side I can walk any road.
In those times when the shadows of life cover me,
I can call on the Lord, He will set my soul free.
So true and so beautifully put, Hebrews 13:5, I will never leave you nor forsake you.
Bless you, John!
I sense your concern for Lee’s recovery and wellness from the days past.
I am praying all will continue to go well. The Lord is with you and Lee.
