Untitled Poem


My Joy has been restored
after laying my burdens at the feet of the Lord
no more to struggle alone
after my problems lie at the foot of His throne

Oh Gracious God, now I trust now I see
these problems were not meant for me
to carry alone with no one beside--
A Heavenly Friend does come alongside

What freedom comes in letting go
true joy and peace, now I know
an unfair trade of struggle for rest--
and You, O Lord, know my way best.
