I Don't Care
by
Barbara Philbrook
As we talked you
said "I don't care",
it tore me in half and filled me with despair.
I've seen your
walk with the Heavenly Father,
I've seen Him encourage you to try harder.
I've seen Him
lift you from hurt and despair,
and now to hear you say "I don't care".
I've seen money
be placed in your hand,
as God provided for His great plan.
I've watched the
enemy charge and attack,
I've seen where God's strength does not lack.
I've seen your
loved ones cause you pain,
and yet from retaliation you always refrain.
I've seen you
lie before God on your face,
asking for strength to get you to the next place.
You've been such
an example of might to me,
and I know you'll come out victoriously.
I refuse to
receive the words I don't care,
because when I get to Heaven I want you there.
I know your love
for God is very true,
and so I'm going to do the only thing I know to do.
Instead of
giving to worry and despair,
I'm lifting you up to God in prayer.
I'm asking Him
to provide you with wisdom and might,
so that you will win this fight.
He will never
leave us nor forsake us I've read,
I know we can trust every word He said.
I don't care
what appears to be,
I'm concentrating instead on God getting the victory.
