Hope, in trials find courage to hope

Believe in Gods hand and Hope  

See the sinking sands of time change your environment and hope in what doesn't change  

See each day as a chance to learn something new and hope.  

Take hold of the difficulty and lay it in the hands of the Lord and hope.  

Seek comfort in his guiding hand and hope.  

Look at what God has done in the past and believe with hope.  

The troubled waves are here yet he is the one who steers life so hope,  

Hope in God, In Christ, In his love and grace.

I'm starting to breath,  

My captive lungs have been released and I can breathe the air of liberty.my heart has been rejuvenated to operate one beat at a time

My eyes are starting to clear up from the steam of self-pity and the world is large with life once more  

Songs and melodies of life begin to resonate in my mind causing me to believe and hope

The grass is always greener on the other side of pain  

The bird cage has been left open  and I can fly free  

I can explore the vastness of the heavens

Time is in the hand of God.

He controls the events of each day both pleasing and dark. Finding humility and comfort in Him is the daily challenge. Each day brings its trouble and the storms must be walked through. Emotions overwhelm the soul perpetually and the heart is drowned in confusion and perplexity. O that help would be sent to assist one to swim in this sea of confusion and heart ache.

Loneliness creeps into the soul leaving the mist of solitary isolation. The heart is unable to cope with floods of emotions. The mind struggles to sit still and composed through the trials of life

To view God as all sufficient and all satisfying in the trials of life is difficult. To believe that in spite of all the trouble, all will be well, therein lies the difficulty.

O sorrowful one  

Your tears are seen  

Each droplet is collected in a sacred bottle  

Your sighs don’t go unheard  

The Lord Knows, The Lord sees  

He ordained the days

He ordained the moments  

Trust Him, he brings solid joys with each day  

He is always at hand to heal and to bless  

Always

Dawn breaks and the burden of the day lays heavy on the back  

Afraid to rise from bed for fear of taking a wrong step  

There's anxiety, worry, guilt  

Pain reaches the extremities and the mind is darkened with doubt  

Strange how pain persist, how it endure long seasons without relenting  

But in the midst of the anguish, there's room for hope  

The darkness will lift in its own time  

The heart through trials learns patience and trust  

Moves carefully taking one small step at a time

There is grace which is sweet to the heart  

Melodies of peace and comfort soon intrudes  

Promises once distant now seem clear and glows brightly  

Love will help lift the burden and cradles the soul in arms of peace

I'm on a path of discovery  

Each day holds delectable fruits of learning for me to taste  

I take one each to my lips and gain understanding  

The night tells of wisdom and my heart is enlarged and encouraged

These trials will only be for a short while and then rest  

There will be a change, sometime soon the monochrome of time will burst forth with colour of joy and refreshment

Awake and arise  

The day greets you each moment and asks what it is you want to achieve  

What were your dreams last night and which ones do you want to accomplish  

Where are your goals and ambitions, lay the before you and ponder on them  

Take a breath and realise that to reach your goals is possible  

Don’t hesitate to think big, to dream big  

Let hope rise with courage and you will see that those little tasks will lead to a big reward  

Each day take a small step, reach out and believe
