Even in the Hard

Even in the hard,

You have been good to me.

For in these moments you remain close,

So that I may bear witness for others to see.

The last few weeks have been dark,

I haven’t felt much peace or content.

Rejection has done a work on my thoughts,

Could this be heaven sent?

Not sure if I am on the path

Towards living or towards dying.

Has done a number on my emotions,

If I said it hadn’t, I’d be lying.

And yet, You have helped me “kiss the waves”

That keep rolling in.

You remind me that I am not alone,

And that I always have a friend.

A friend who can ALSO heal,

By the power of the name you have been given.

The authority of the name, Jesus Christ!

To clean us, heal us, and help us keep livin!

In Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,

You healed people on every page!

They had faith that you would, and you did,

Sending the Pharisees into a rage.

I can’t get over you as God here on earth,

You were humble, loving, and kind.

Yet the Power within you with which you could wield,

In any other human we could never find.

So even in the hard,

When everything feels out of place.

I am completely confident to know

My comforter, my soul protector,

I know You see my face.

And all is well with my soul.
