\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

When sadness will not go and you live in the land of despair\u2026<\/h6>\n
Tears fall in streams of regret leaving pain everywhere\u2026<\/h6>\n
The hour glass turning over as years come and go<\/h6>\n
Looking back into the life that once was young, now old\u2026<\/h6>\n
The web you spun all tangled up from running wild and cold\u2026<\/h6>\n
Looking for answers even though you were told\u2026<\/h6>\n
The only life worth living is the one where light unfolds\u2026<\/h6>\n
Stop your crying, lift up your head now\u2026child, it\u2019s time to come home\u2026<\/h6>\n
No more hurting or striving for a place to call your own\u2026<\/h6>\n
Open your eyes and see clearly each moment you\u2019re alive<\/h6>\n
You\u2019re sent on an assignment and when you finally arrive\u2026<\/h6>\n
You\u2019ll no longer live in the land of despair…<\/h6>\n
For Love will meet you there\u2026<\/h6>\n
The land of Hope will be your home, and peace your sweet reward.<\/h6>\n
While living in this cursed place, heaven will unfold,<\/h6>\n
But look toward the eastern sky, for it will testify\u2026<\/h6>\n
Life begins at the new birth\u2026<\/h6>\n
For Jesus is, and will always be, all this life is worth\u2026<\/h6>\n
Looking at the past will only bring you heartache; it\u2019s not the place that lasts\u2026<\/h6>\n
Living in the here and now, is where you\u2019ll bask, in happiness\u2026<\/h6>\n
Blessed in knowing Jesus Christ, is all you\u2019ll ever need\u2026<\/h6>\n
When pain and suffering come to call, and doubts like mountains will not fall\u2026<\/h6>\n
Trust in God and you will see, He\u2019s all you\u2019ll need…<\/h6>\n
After all!<\/h6>\n

Psalm 3:2-6 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)<\/em><\/strong> Many say about me, \u201cThere is no help for him in God. \u201cSelah<\/em><\/h6>\n
But You, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts up my head. I cry aloud to the Lord, and He answers me from His holy mountain. Selah<\/em><\/h6>\n
I lie down and sleep; I wake again because the Lord sustains me. I am not afraid of the thousands of people who have taken their stand against me on every side.<\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
