I see you with hands in chin\/<\/p>\n
In thoughts deeper than wells of Beijing\/<\/p>\n
I see you constantly run your fingers through your hair,<\/p>\n
like you now live in a world whose problems you no longer can bear\/<\/p>\n
I hear you deep sighing\/<\/p>\n
Shaking your head and clapping your hands. . .well I know what you’re implying\/<\/p>\n
That you’ve been to hell and back\/<\/p>\n
Or that you feel betrayed and no one’s got your back\/<\/p>\n
Listen, I’ve been there. . .<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You broke?<\/p>\n
No cash to get the good things of life like your folks?<\/p>\n
And your life pattern is depicted by worrying strokes?<\/p>\n
You struggle so hard and life still seems to you like a joke. . .<\/p>\n
I know that feeling of lost hope bro…<\/p>\n
You not alone in this cos I’ve been there<\/p>\n
\/<\/p>\n
Degrees, certificates and recommendation letters in piles\/<\/p>\n
Yet you’ve combed the city like a bushy hair and still no job in sight\/<\/p>\n
This is life doing you bad in different styles\/<\/p>\n
It’s frustrating right?<\/p>\n
I know that feeling and…<\/p>\n
I’ve been there
\n\/<\/p>\n
Have you been cheated, lied to or heart broken?<\/p>\n
Or your heart grilled well done in a Black and Decker oven?<\/p>\n
And you curse destiny for not changing its course\/<\/p>\n
When it was just a few seconds away\/<\/p>\n
Or a few seconds left for your heart to pause\/<\/p>\n
You wished you never met right?<\/p>\n
I know that feeling too…cos..<\/p>\n
I just left there. . .<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Have you sometimes questioned why it had to be you\/<\/p>\n
That these horrible things are happening to\/<\/p>\n
Or that the forces of nature have ganged up against you\/<\/p>\n
Which sometimes leads you to think God isn’t true\/
\nBut I’m here to give you tidings of hope\/<\/p>\n
That you should keep calm and let God probe\/<\/p>\n
And that reminds me of a passage and I quote\/<\/p>\n
“That no man have we placed a burden on, other than he can carry”<\/p>\n
End quote\/<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So know\/<\/p>\n
That just as no leaf falls from a tree without knowledge from above\/<\/p>\n
So is God aware every time you are in a hole\/<\/p>\n
Hold on tight to his rope<\/p>\n
And he will play his role\/<\/p>\n
No matter how long it takes<\/p>\n
Or how much has passed you by\/<\/p>\n
Something or someone better is being prepared somewhere\/<\/p>\n
Patience costs nothing my friend<\/p>\n
Let God be your strength<\/p>\n
Cos, only in him do hearts find rest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
