THE BURDEN BEAR

I'm not a fancy bear, I'm plain and
rather small.
Even so, someone who loves you said
that I should come to call.
Hide me beneath your pillow or set
me on a nearby shelf.
And when you feel discouraged I will
do my best to help!
I brought my favorite blanket that I snuggle when I'm sad. It's a present from my Granny, made
for days when things seem bad.
My Granny always told me, "Life is
like this patchwork quilt.
Just give Jesus all the pieces and He'll
make a pretty quilt."
Sometimes I don't see the pattern.
Sometimes He seems far away.
Then I clutch my favorite blanket and
I pray and pray and pray.
Though I don't have all the answers
(for I'm just a burden bear),
I've been sent on a Mission from
someone who really cares.
When you see me please remember
you are in their thoughts and prayers!
