Today I am as frustrated as can be and I need The Lord to comfort me. <br />I need Christ’s Peace to fill my heart before my day can even start. <br />When my heart begins to well with fear I know my Lord is always near. <br />I need my focus to be on Him when my emotions begin to stir within. <br /> <br />All my times are in The Lord’s Hands even when I don’t understand. <br />As Satan sets me up for a fall, in The Lord I can rise above it all. <br />When in my life my heart is tried, I remember that for me Christ died. <br />When I begin my day with The Lord the peace to my heart is restored. <br /> <br />When things about me shift like sand, on The Eternal Rock I’ll stand. <br />He who gave me my very life will help me through this day of strife. <br />Christ helps me through every day, as I cast all my cares His way. <br />He is with me each day my friend, preparing me for the coming end. <br /> <br />Trials do come and trials go, but this life is temporal, this I know. <br />Home is where the heart is friend and this fallen world is not my end. <br />In my trials He helps me see that all this strife ceases in Eternity. <br />No more pain and no more strife, just a pure and perfect Eternal Life. <br /> <br />As I focus on Christ’s soon return a peace in my heart begins to churn. <br />And this is one that will not cease, as this my friend is Eternal Peace. <br />Then today’s frustration melts away, as I know I’m not here to stay. <br />For soon I will see His face as I’m raptured from this temporal place. <br /> <br />(Copyright ©10/2004)<br /><br />Bob Gotti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-i-am-frustrated/
