When we've reached the end of sorrow
With no more tears to cry,
With no more thoughts to ponder
And no-where else to hide.
There's no-one else to talk to-
And could they understand,
The path we're set to travel-
To bravely hold our hand.
We've asked for a solution
And cried, God take the pain,
Please change the situation
Control the pouring rain.
But, there's no alteration
The sun, still rises, sets,
Life, is the way it is-
They say it's for the best.
But, we crave the joy that's hidden
And so we seek to find,
A hope to comfort deadness
And strength to manage time.
We know the answers are not ours
Nor is the plan to know,
There's only trust each moment
For life that's not our own.
Our God has all the power
To keep our mind and heart,
We're only safe in spirit
In all that God imparts.

Poetry from The Heart
Your circumstances may not be what you envisioned,
but they are no obstacle for God.
Paul learned that God was fully capable to reveal
Himself, not only in the expected places,
but in that which was unexpected as well.
He wrote, But thanks be to God, who always leads
us in His triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of
the knowledge of Him in every place (2 Cor 2:14)
As you exercise your faith, as you rest, trusting in Him,
do what Christ would do in your circumstances.
Unbelief will flee as you become Christlike in the crisis.
God will turn your setback into a setup that releases destiny.
~ Francis Frangipane ~
