We're never alone ...

Job 35:7

“If you are righteous what do you give Him

or what does He receive from your hand?”

 

God does for us … what we cannot see

even at our best … we can’t comprehend.

He is always near … and always here

to support us in spite of the rules we bent.

 

He feels all the pain … and all suffering

as it happens on earth … to every child.

He senses the hurt … time and again as

He will not leave … the sufferer’s side.

 

Man thinks God ... to be untouchable

but He always ready to touch us.

All we need to do is reach out to Him

and in gratitude thank Him as such.

 

When I cry a tear I touch Him ... and when I misbehave I don’t?

Well I mean in the flesh … where there “dwells” little good?

In spirit I can touch Him … in my sorrow He draws near.

When I break down and grieve ... He gently changes my mood.

 

When I am vulnerable … He lifts me in His arms.

He carries me until I settle down ... with a soothing balm.

He is so dependable … full of love and warmth.

Every time I turn around … He whispers a loving psalm.

 

There is no one like Him … and there will never be.

He is The One of a kind … the Master of Eternal.

Filled to the brim … with love I cannot perceive

for I am to blind ... in my appointed temporal.
