I reached down into the depths of my weary soul.
Searching for an answer that could console.
The doubt and questions of daily living,
That sometimes ends up in misgiving
Like a small child I find myself asking "Why"?
Do the things I plan end up going awry.
The paralyzing fear that overcomes my reason,
Has brought about a desolate season.
It is then I recall my teaching from childhood.
Regarding our Savior who was all that is good.
Who through his love gave us the promise of hope?
Supplied the courage and wisdom to cope.
As I read and decipher His Holy Word,
I realize that all my fears were absurd.
Jesus gave his life what a grand endeavor!
So that we might live with him forever.
