Faith that withstands the seasons
Faith that shines in the dark
Faith that flourishes in the storms of life
Faith that binds when I am falling apart.
This test is harder than I studied for
This cross is breaking my back
This stress feels like a hurricane
With clouds that are livid and black.
I am fighting a battle inside my head
Bouncing around in the stages of grief
Hitting upon a winning strategy
Only to find tears washing away the relief.
I pray for comfort and for His helping hand
To lift me out of the deep
To show me promise in this newborn day
So once again my broken heart will beat.
For I know I am truly authentic and pure
And that intent is often dismissed
I know who I am and how I’ll withstand
It is in faith that I will persist.
For truth liberates and triumphs
When emotion and pride subside
Replaced by gratitude and perspective
Letting God both guide and provide.
