Through trials and tribulations
We always seem to grow
Sometimes we think God has left us
But in our hearts we know
That He is right beside us
And He will guide us through
As you must remember
He gave His Son for you
So when your day seems dreary
And depression steps inside
Just open up to Jesus
And it will run and hide
When your pain is too much to bare
And you feel you want to cry
Just turn your face toward heaven
And let Jesus wipe your eyes
Through trials and tribulations
You never have to fear
For in your heart is Jesus
And He truly loves you dear

Yeah, I know that's true, but I find it so hard to turn to Him. It hurts so much, stupid pride. I have cried out before, my poem Confession of the Fallen is evidence to that. sigh
Thank you for entering this in my contest.

Jesus tried to rape me...

Gorgeous poem with an amazing rhyme scheme and it's true, when I'm going through rough times I should simply fall to my knees and let Him hold me tight, but man, sometimes that can be incredibly hard. Thank you for taking the time to enter my contest and good luck!

That poem is so moving, I nearly shed a tear because you're right about Jesus always being there even when we feel like he isn't. Thanks so much for writing it! -
