    God's Promise

     Alone feeling lost, feeling broken, tired, sad

    I cried out from beneath this dark shroud

    looking up, not even a star to light the darkness

    Despair settled in, my chest began to ache

    Inside I felt like I was dying, my heart began to break

    I fell to my knees, in anguish and agony

    I asked God please help me

    I cannot do this alone

    I have tried my own way

    Now I am ready to come home

    I asked him to forgive me for my rebellion

    and my sins

    I asked him to bless me, I am here Lord

    Please let me in

    I felt the Holy Spirit move over me like a wave

    Instantly in that moment I knew that I was saved

    I accepted jesus, and God said to me

    Dear child, Even when you turned away from me

    I was with you all the while

    Even when you lived life selfishly and pretended

    not to care

    Even when you did bad things I was always there

    when days were good and the sun was bright

    and you felt you didn't need  me

    because everything seemed to be alright

    I was right there with you and could see inside your heart

    I was right there waiting we we never far apart

    Even when you were far away from me

    I was right there by your side

    If you had only turned to see

    I never leave my children or turn my face the other way

    even when my children leave, and go there own way.

    I am always your Father and you my child.

    Even when you thought you were alone

    I was with you all the while.

    God I thank you for all your many blessings

    Please bless all that read this.

    thank you

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
