Strength Through It All

Strength Through It All

A Poem by Jasmine Smith

Pressed on every side but not crushed
For we are held together by Christ's love
Perplexed but not in despair
For we serve the all-knowing God, from the number of stars to your number of                          hairs
Persecuted but not abandoned
My God is a faithful companion
Struck down but not destroyed
For the battle is already won says The Lord
In your weakness Christ is strong
Even if it is you that is in the wrong
The end of you looks like it is coming near
But it is just that your vision is not clear
For Jesus is right there beside you, your light in the dark
And from your side he will never depart
Never placing more on you than you can bear
He is not placing struggles upon you without a care
That load was not meant for you to carry alone
Ask for his help, you are not alone
You will make it through, just continue to press on
You are not fighting this battle alone
Don't look back just look forward
For what is to come is great says The Lord
Do not rely on yourself but on the almighty God
Put your trust in the one who isn't flawed
Set your hope on him and he will deliver you
Be your comfort in every trial that you go through
Out the struggle will be a stronger you on the inside
So be strong, don't worry, let Christ be your guide
