Jesus, Please Help Me with My Heavy
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Jesus, Please Help Me With My Heavy Load!



 



Along the road of life,



I carry a large load!



It feels quite heavy… 



As I travel a dangerous road.



 



This load I carry is often



heavy to bear…



At times, I stumble… 



And caught “unaware…”



 



The trials and hardships



 of life…   I will endure!



I’ll try to stay on a path



that’s safe and secure.



 



There are times, however,



when I get in a hurry...



As the storms of life



cause a “flurry.”



 



During my travel… As I look up



 to the dark skies…



I can almost look into



my heavenly father’s eyes…



 



As God reaches down



his arms so strong…



He’s there to lead me, when things go wrong.



 



The Lord is there to help



 with my heavy burden…



He’s also my guiding light… 



I am most certain!



 



The Lord is my shepherd



and is with me where I go…



He’s brought strength and



 rest for my weary soul.



 



This load I carry may be full



of so many things…



But grows lighter because of the love



that Jesus brings!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
