TRUST

Oh Lord, how can I ever trust again?
I've been hurt so many times.
"I am not man. I am thy creator.
Have I not given thee life?"
But Lord, It is a life of such physical and emotional pain.
I cannot take anymore.
I am too afraid to ever trust again.

"Thou sayeth ye cannot take anymore.
Didst Thou think life would be easy?
Didst thou think it easy as nails were driven into
MY hands and feet for thee?
As did I, so must ye carry your cross.
Nay, I have not given thee more than ye can bear.
Lean on me, my child,
I shalt always be thy strength.
Trust in me and ye shalt know peace."
