Broken Lives

My testimony of times gone by and of where I am now, by God’s grace.

Broken lives fall all to pieces,

Not just one kind, but many species,

Different looks and circumstances,

Sometimes just from happenstances.

The ins and outs and whereabouts

Of why things happen can cause doubts

And fears of future situations,

Depending on our life’s relations.

Some people choose to medicate

Their pain, because they can’t relate

To why things happen as they are,

And why they’ve gotten now so far.

They run away, and so escape

From what is hurting them to date,

But then they find it doesn’t help,

But makes them feel like they’re in hell.

So, what’s the answer? Is there one?

The answer falls in Christ, God’s Son

Who gave His life in death on cross

So He can heal us, soothe the loss.

Not only does He forgive sins,

The Holy Spirit lives within

The lives of those in Him do trust.

And healing lives, it is His thrust.

He’ll heal our hurts and change our lives,

So now our lives on Christ rely.

He’ll give us strength for everyday

To bow before Him, kneel, and pray.

He’ll help us now to walk in truth,

And give not in to those uncouth.

He’ll heal our hearts and give us strength

To live in peace, not short, at length.
