In a Time of Trouble
"Is any among you afflicted?let him pray. Is any merry?let him sing psalms."-James 5:13
Those who are hurting -Who are afraid of tomorrow -Who wonder why? Who ask for understanding -Those whose hearts have become bitter -
Fall -Fall to your knees and pray -Pray for tomorrow -Ask for the answers -Ask for understanding -Pray that your bitterness will seize,
Cry out with all you are -Let Him know of your afflictions -Pray for His help when you are troubled -
And praise Him for all the good He has done -And all the good He will do -
Do not let your heart become weary -
Rejoice so you may be renewed in Him -
Give Him all you hold within so He can heal your hurting and restore your joy -
Be not afraid to come to the Lord -Be not ashamed of what you have to question -Be not silent with Him for He will help if you only ask -
So find somewhere to kneel and lift your voice and hands -Let Him back in -
Let Him help again.
