Just Reach Up

Grief and fear
blinding your eyes
from the light,
the light is gone.
All alone you feel,
no one cares,
the sympathy was just a fad,
now withered and forgotten.
Stop these foolish lies!!!
The master of the universe,
has your life mapped out.
We can't see the end,
so we must trust our faith.
He hears your every plea,
His heart aches with yours,
every tear ever spilled
fell into His hands.
He knows how you feel,
the frustration,
agony, depression,
gloom.
He is with you,
whether you believe it or not.
He stands above you,
with outstrechted hands,
whispering words of love and peace,
comfort and healing,
just reach up.

    These lines really comforted me.Some times it nice to remind us. When things go wrong we wonder why. It nice to know there comfort and healing all we do is reach up. It kind of reminded me of the thief on the cross. One went to heaven the other died with our knowing God love.
    This touched my heart.

    Thank you for your entry

    This is such an uplifting and powerful poem. Not so much a prayer, but a lesson everyone needs to hear and know. All we need to do is just reach up. Good luck in the contest.

    God Bless

    Yes, yes, yes ... how we should all learn to "let go" and trust. This is a timely poem and one I need to take on board for myself!! Very well written.

    Aren't we blessed that He hears us, and know what we need. We need just, "Reach Up" to Him and He will bless us abundantly. I enjoyed this very much.

    He is with you,
