When you are overwhelmed with
the pressures of life,
When the tension is so thick
you need a knife

When your friends are far away
and alone you must face the day.

When you are cluttered in your mind
with distraction
When you are overwhelmed with
complication.

When your spirit seems shaken
and your joy is taken.

When hope seems to hang on just by
a thread
and it's all you can do to get out
of bed.

When God seems far and faith
is a struggle
When the words " I am fine"
are merley a mumble.

It's important for you to see
my friend
You know not the ultimate end.

I like corners and this is why..
because, while you sit and cry..

You can not see around the corner
what it offers may be splendid pleasure.

In the midst of your trial,
In the midst of your pain,
In the midst of the bullshit
that falls on you like rain.

Remember, around your corner
may be something astounding
blessing for you in your future abounding.

So while your here in this place
gather strength and wisdom and an attitude
of grace.

Take the day and with it's challenge
Conquer it!!
Close your eyes for a while
and breathe right on through it!

You'll be doing great in a while,
just wait and see.

Oh the opportunities that be.

You realize don't you
that without hard times
the good won't seem as good?

You will appreciate them more than
some others would.

Which means you will hold life
dear to your soul
and teaching others to conquer
will be just one of your goals.

For now this is your challenge..
Just breathe and learn!!
