I Had Some Trouble Right Before Me!

I had some trouble right before me!

I was in pain, as it began to hurt me!

I was filled with uncertainty and fear!

I told it; “I want you to get out of here!”

But no matter how much I tried to do it.

I realized that I failed!  I blew it!

I was trying all of this on my own!

I felt utterly helpless and all alone!

I then felt someone speak inside of me.

He said; “I am Jesus!”  Won’t you try me?”

I knew that I wasn’t as strong as I thought I was!

Jesus was there to help!

Because it’s me, whom he loves!

I asked him to take away all of my pride!

I gave him everything!  I’d nothing to hide!

He took my troubles and anxiety within.

And taught me to surrender and trust him!

He brought a joy and peace that I never  knew!

I felt his mighty strength, and became renewed!

I bless you my Lord!  With much gratitude!

I know you now!  And a humbled attitude!

Over life’s troubles, Jesus helps me to prevail!

He is God!  And will never fail!
