POEM: Obstacle Course

Don't fear if these days you feel weaker
or if debt has you held down - 
deeper and deeper
do you have a loved one
who has strayed from the flock
don't know if he's far away
or around the block
what about the tensions
you face on your job
you know ...those days
that you cry and sob
Are you just feeling depressed
like your life is an empty nest
Is it about that true love of your life
who took your heart and cut it with a knife
Do you feel like you're the next hot topic
and when people describe you - 
it's sometimes graphic

Well I know someone
who can solve these problems
and give you joy
and help you erase them
When you feel like you are at your lowest
that you're tossed in the storm
and lost in the tempest
there is hope for you to make it through
so you'll get strength and feel renewed
gain confidence and forget the nonsense
because in these times of war and turbulence
you need your armor and your full strength

So don't give up
and never give in
You are on an obstacle course to win
Put your faith and trust
in God Almighty
and do your best to live uprightly
seek good counsel and be your brother's keeper
cause in turn Jesus will be your keeper
He is a friend anytime you need him
He loves every man and forgives their sins
so yes you still can conquer the odds
just put your faith and trust in God
