Peace Amidst Pain

June 13, 2024

I don’t understand all the things that occur
When life’s out of focus I see just a blur.
When others are hurting and suffer in pain
And I know I can’t fix it, I can’t stop the rain,

Lord give me compassion to show that I care,
Offer my shoulder to lean on and share.
I pray for their strength through the darkest of nights
Enduring the pain until morning’s first light.

I pray for the sunshine the heat of the day
To lighten the load, drive the darkness away.
May the pain and the hurting subside and soon ease
Once again find the sunshine, the morning’s cool breeze.

May the Lord bring you peace in the midst of the storm.
May your soul mind and body begin to transform.
