Overwhelmed

Life at times heaps a pile of issues on the plate,

And its timing is never all that great.

Trials are piled high like a stacking contest,

Ensuring a person’s immediate unrest.

 

Health, houses, cars, people, and work

All seem to labor together to bring out the murk.

Some issues are inflicted by self,

Others approach with great stealth.

 

With so many troubles piling high,

Life feels as if it is going awry.

Thankfully there is still hope in sight,

With some work, everything can be made right.

 

Without a doubt, help begins with the Lord,

His loving hand of help should not be ignored.

1 Peter 5:7 tells us to cast our anxiety on Him because He cares.

We can’t go wrong when we rely on the Man upstairs.

 

Jesus tells us to come to Him for rest (Matthew 11:28-30),

Trusting in Him will relieve the stress.

May we never give up and keep working toward improvement,

Making certain to keep God at our side with every movement.
