We all have to face that day.
Not one of us is immune or safe from that day.
You can’t block the unexpected phone call from shattering your world.
You can’t hide in a closet from the pain that is coming.
There’s no road far enough to run from the news that will change everything.
No amount of pretending will shield you from the arrows of heartache.
If today is that day
and the pain is too great to wrap your arms around it,
I’VE GOT THIS.
Until we see Jesus there will be that day.
We live. We die. We fall down in between.
For every hello there is a goodbye on hold.
There’s no Band-Aid big enough to prevent a heart’s bleeding.
There’s no dam strong enough to hold back the flooding of tears.
There are no words to answer your pleading “Why?”
If you’ve been swept away into this ocean of sorrow,
I’VE GOT YOU.
If today is that day:
Your Heavenly Father’s GOT THIS.
Your Heavenly Father’s GOT YOU.
Take comfort this day. The one who created the heavens and earth, the one who spoke every star into place with his voice, sees all things and knows all things.
He holds the universe in His hands.
He holds you in his hands.
In him all things hold together. Colossians 1:17 NIV
HE’S GOT THIS.
Your Heavenly Father’s also GOT YOU.
God is so close to our mourning.
He grieves for all of our tears.
So much so that:
“You keep track of all my sorrows,
You have collected all my tears in your bottle.
You have recorded each one in your book.” Psalms 56:8 NIV
Your Heavenly Father’s also GOT YOU in your tomorrow.
He never leaves us nor forsakes us; especially when we’re hurting.
That day will end and tomorrow is coming.
Take comfort, He will always turn your sorrow into joy:
… weeping may stay for the night,
but rejoicing comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5 NIV
HE’S GOT YOU
By Lori A Alicea
Your life we celebrate this day,
Twelve years, although were few.
Remembering the days you lived,
And plan He had for you.
Our arms are void of your embrace,
Our hearts, you now reside.
Rejoice the Father’s GOT YOU now,
His arms you rest inside.
