b'Thoughts waging war upon this tortured soulI want to be thankful, I long to have hopeBut some days the darkness won\\u2019t seem to endMy eyes are bone dry, my faith feels thin\\nSend forth Your truth to cut through the attack Remind me I\\u2019m Yours and I never will lackYour unfailing love, compassion, and grace Keep me here kneeling and seeking Your face\\nWhen each step is pain,Despair overwhelmingRemind me thatYou are the God who sees Somehow You\\u2019ll work this all out For my goodAnd Your ultimate glory\\u2014 You promised You would\\nLord, find me waitingFor wisdom I pleadGive me Your courageYour perfect peace \\u2022 Savannah Coleman\\n\\u2022 Have you ever felt like the author of this poem? We all go through seasons in our lives when the mental or physical pain feels beyond what we are capable of enduring. When oppressive thoughts threaten to overwhelm us, we can be honest with God. Jesus knows firsthand the pain we\\u2019re facing, and as His followers we can ask Him for help whenever we need it. \\nMay the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
