Where is God in the Time of Tragedy?

 

God's Love, given for all at Calvary, 

Jesus Christ, for He is the Light that drives out the Darkness, 

From the heart, to love, live, and give in Him, 

His Love Mends the Broken Heart!

Where is God in the Time of Tragedy? 

Through faith's belief in Jesus Christ, 

By repentance of all sins and acceptance to follow Him, 

God is right there within you, 

With you, 

As He was with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, 

There in your heart, 

For by free will He is a part of you. 

Thereby, giving you, by knowing Him, 

Through your strength in Him, 

The resolve to endure and the courage to persevere,

Knowing the Lord’s strength to face and overcome all in life as He in Him knowing you. 

Remember, Love is always given, 

Love woven with kindness, compassion, and affection, 

"It is the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another." 

Memories of the past, they open the heart within to heal and give again, 

For Love given to build, encourage, and help others, 

It heals the heart from the inside out, 

Not only the heart of the receiver, but also the heart of the giver as well, 

With memories of the past 

That opens the heart to view 

God's Love, given for all at Calvary, 

Jesus Christ, for He is the Light that drives out the Darkness, 

From the heart, to love, live, and give in Him, 

His Love Mends the Broken Heart!

Lord, build me in You as I follow in faith’s belief You,
