This beautiful poem reminded me that God loves me, no matter what I am going through, He knows what is best, and I shall continue to take refuge in Him.
If I can endure for this minute
Whatever is happening to me,
No matter how heavy my heart is
Or how dark the moment may be –
If I can remain calm and quiet
With all the world crashing about me,
Secure in the knowledge God loves me
When everyone else seems to doubt me –
If I can but keep on believing
What I know in my heart to be true,
That darkness will fade with the morning
And that this will pass away too –
Then nothing in life can defeat me
For as long as this knowledge remains
I can suffer whatever is happening
For I know God will break all of the chains –
That are binding me tight in the darkness
And trying to fill me with fear
For there is no night without dawning
And I know that my morning is near.

Have a Blessed day !
