Are you looking in all the wrong places?

When you find yourself cornered
burdened with circumstances
beyond your control
yet looking for a way of escape
Do not get caught up
in acts of desperation
and confusion
leading you down lonely roads
away from where
The Lord
of your life
desires you to be

Reach for Him
He has no angles
No evil intent
You belong to Him
He is everywhere
There is no one
who is or will be
more to you
than Jesus

Come to Him
in the midst
of your pain
Concentrate on His love
for you
His plans for you
His Presence in you
Turn to Him
The Lord is not hidden
He see you
He is Everywhere, Everything, Every Time
If you do not see Him
Are  you looking in all the wrong places?


Turn away from where your mind wanders,
sidetracked by all that isn’t right
Turn to Him
Rely on the Lord
not on yourself
Come to Him
He will ease
the load you carry
He is All we need
Always.
