Faith
When You Despair
There are times when bad things happen to the Best of us.
When we try to push these things inside and handle them ourselves we surrender to the
darkness.
It gives an opening for the grief and despair to take hold.
The darkness can spread and surround us.
Like a freezing fog it envelopes us and keeps us from the light and makes the heart grow
cold and dark.
You feel alone and unloved even when surrounded by family and friends.
It is up to you then.
It is up to you to look hard into the fog and darkness.
Look hard and see the shimmer of what could be light.
Look into the light and you will see a hand.
It is up to you to trust and reach out for that hand.
If you choose not to trust and reach out you are doomed to freeze and wither and die slowly
from the inside.
If you trust and reach out for the hand it will bring you to the light of those who love you.
It will bring you to a place where you can unfreeze your heart and set your soul free.
Let go of what hurt you and look for the hands that are extended to you every day my
friends.
Stay away from despair and fall into the arms of love and light
