During My Discouragement I Found Encouragement
I Was Discouraged… But Jesus Found Me!
I was so discouraged the
way things were going.
I was frustrated and upset.
And it was showing!
I was about ready to give up
on everything I tried…
And remember the nights I laid awake and cried.
I thought of God. Whom I once had professed…
But now was doubtful, confused and so depressed.
Just then, I felt a voice coming down,
And soon felt God’s love and
presence all around!
His voice spoke clearly
that particular day.
And spoke three words to me;
“trust and obey!”
These words had a new meaning
and touched my heart.
For Jesus has loved me. Right from the start!
I poured out my heart to him
with every burden.
He rolled back the dark clouds
and “heavy curtain.”
He helped me to focus and give
my worries to him.
As a new life began to transform from within!
I’ve given to him my every problem
and every need.
His word and spirit has given
a new direction to lead.
Won’t you allow him to change
your life this hour?
And experience his love and
life-changing power???
