God’s Always There to Pick Me Up!

One day, I found myself “falling to the ground.”

Any hope for me, was nowhere to be found.

The satisfaction I was looking for, wasn’t there.

I got to the point in life, where I didn’t care!

There were some things I tried to hide.

But this body of mine was hurting inside!

The habits I had, were pulling

me in a “downward momentum.”

The things I did…  I don’t want to mention them!

I knew that my life was crashing down fast!

Any kind of “real pleasure,” didn’t last!

What was I going to do?  I began to ponder.

I was very confused and began to wonder…

Then one night, I cried out, in Jesus’ name.

Things in my life would never be the same!

I cried, “Lord…Will you take me?”

 “I’ve nothing to give!”

I was discouraged and tired of the way I lived!

Just when all seemed hopeless with no way out…

God touched me with his love all throughout!

As time went by, I learned to trust him!

He did so much for me!  How much I love him!

He took away the uncertainties, doubts and fear.

I now know he’s with me.  He’s always here!

I’ m walking on solid ground!  My path is brightened!

By God’s glory and beauty, my life is enlightened!

I thank you Jesus and give praise to you alone!

You’ve blessed my life, my heart and home!
