He Will Carry Me Through
By: Sara Wall
A desire is burning deep within me, but it seems I can’t comprehend it.
The light is before my eyes, yet I pass it and stumble into the darkness.
Tears blur my vision, my heart shatters in two, and my hope grows dim.
The flame of faith has gone out, leaving my soul desolate.
Something within me urges me not to give up; to search for a tiny spark.
The rain beats down, drumming a tune with a lost memory, and my heart aches in melancholy once again.
Pain seizes me, and I’m left with vivid pictures of emptiness and sorrow.
As I peer through the window, my gaze meets a most magnificent sight:
The rain halted, and a splendid rainbow spread against the freshly washed sky.
O, dear Lord, thank You for the reminder that you are with me in my trials and will carry me through.
