How Much More Strong is God
I wrote this several years ago when a friend was going through a major crisis. It seems pertinent to these days also, however, which is why I am posting it here.
How Much More Strong is God
How sad this crisis
Yet
How much more strong is God.
How emotional we mortals
Yet
How perfect is God's understanding of us.
How feelble we
Yet
How powerful He.
To whom can we turn
When with passions we burn
On whom can we lean
When weakness we keen
In whom can we comfort find
When we feel we are losing our mind?
There is only One but in that One alone
Will be all we need in our hurting zone.
There is no weakness in being weak;
His is the grace we must seek;
His the wisdom we so need;
Ask, He will not call it greed.
Ask, compassion He will proffer
From His everlasting coffer.
Ask, weeping, without strength;
His will take you the full length
Of each day;
Trust and pray.
