Hold On

Hold On

Life has gotten too tough

It feels as if I’m being smothered

As if everything is against me

Nothing makes sense anymore

With failing health and dwindling resources

With unpaid bills and unfed stomach

With broken heart and spirit

With too many tears and sleepless nights

I feel I should throw in the towel

I feel like giving up

I feel like ending it all

But I know that won’t please God

And then the other side might be hell

At least all these would have an end but hell won’t

Then I hear the small still voice

Hold on….I still love and care for you

For how long should I hold on and do you really care?

Hold on…….I’m here with you

It’s been years and it seems to be getting worse

Hold on…you got the clock, I don’t

My strength is failing and my faith dwindling

Hold on…..don’t just give up

My hand is slipping….I’m finding it difficult to hold on

Hold on….I got a hold on you

I‘d  try  to hold on….no matter what life throws at me

Hold on….I have a purpose for everything

On you I will wait Dear Lord

On you I will put my trust

On you I will put my hope

On you I will fix my eyes

I would hold on…I won’t give up!

Hello Rose...

Tests are not real fun unless you are getting a great reward when you pass...

Like a driver's license...

This is what I see as a basic test...

I like to think of it as if I pass now it could be on the final...

Hold On

Great write! 

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

That should be the driving force....see it as a test you are required to pass...see it as a passing phase and so won't last forever...Thanks for such beautiful words Sweet Sparrowsong...I'm encouraged

Hugs...Lots of love
