Oh God! Please no more hurdles today!
I beg you don’t send another my way.
I don’t think I can take it, I’m reaching my end.
Please God, you promised You would be my friend!
What kind of a friend would allow such a thing?
My life has no purpose, there’s no song left to sing.
I can’t be a blessing to others this way.
My body’s so broken, it feels useless and frail.
Dear Child, I know how much pain you now feel.
I’ve allowed it so you can bless others in need.
There are many who suffer and have no one to share.
Till they meet you and see that your friendship is rare.
Be patient for I know all that is now and will be.
Your life does bring praise, honor and glory to Me.
Each time you encourage your dear husband or friend,
You bring tears to My eyes in the simplest of ways.
The pain you experience keeps you humble and meek.
Don’t forget it’s My Face for which you must seek.
My Kingdom is soon coming with no hurdles to war.
In My Presence forever where pain is no more!
