Solace

A Poem of Comfort

Bridgitte Williams

When it all gets to be too much.

When you need a gentle hug.

When you think that none will ever care.

His love is waiting for you there.

You call out to him in times of need.

Some are dying, some bleed.

You may think that he doesn't hear.

His wisdom is always there.

No, life is not always fair.

You may be drowning in total despair.

We can't yet understand things happening.

Some may be far reaching.

In the end, just close your eyes.

Send your prayers up to the skies.

Realize your life was given.

So you can journey to heaven.

Yes, there is a reason.

Though in this life, you may never see it.

Hang on and be strong.

Remember that you are never alone.

Take his mighty hand.

He is your best friend.

When you are falling through.

He and you will catch you.

Because his strength is yours.

You are beauty, love, kindness and more.

Don't you ever doubt.

God hears you crying out.

Gentle arms cradle your hope.

He loves you more than you will ever know.

So, each magical and miraculous day.

Let us stop for just one moment and pray.

We all sometimes feel alone.

You are not on your own.

Listen to hearts.

That is where solace starts.

The path is love.

It is and has to be enough.

Remember this.

We are all blessed and his.

We are all that we are.

Because we live in someone's heart.

You may not even yet know.

Who loves you so.

We have been forgiven.

Your life is worth living.

God has told us so.

This wonderful truth, we know.

Us, earth, sky, sun, moon and stars.

God knows who we all are.

A prayer for inner peace.

Eternal joy and serenity.

Amen.


I do believe in prayer. I do believe some prayers are answered. I do believe in miracles. I do believe in love. I also think our inner strength gets us through the tough times. And faith. Thanks for reading. May you always find solace.
