Jesus is Always There 7/15/08

When I'm too weak to come to You,
You send Your angels on to me,
In one form or another,
Your whisper or person it be.

You don't leave me to drift alone,
In my forlorn sea of distress,
But come to my aid most swiftly,
My needs always to address.

Even my small animals
Are sources of comfort and joy,
That You choose to use in my life,
Your gift of love to employ.

Your sure, unconditional love
Is always placed at my feet.
In my times of discouragement,
My every need You do meet.

I must keep reminding myself
Of the One Who is so true,
That He will take away the clouds,
And bring back His sky of blue.

When I forget Him and am at loss,
He never leaves me in that space,
But brings Himself to my mind
So I can see His brilliant face.

Then the rays of His Son shine in,
To capture a moment fair,
And I am reminded again
That Jesus is always there,

To bring my spirits up at last,
To look to His heavenly realm,
And remember I need not fear,
Because I know Who's at the helm.
