Every Day
I know you are struggling
Sometimes life seems so unfair
And while I don’t know what it’s like
It doesn’t mean that I don’t care
I would remove all your pain
I would dry every last tear
If it made your journey easier
Or changed what brought you here
I know when we are moving
Our focus is on the end
Never knowing…not realizing
What is around the bend
More urgent than the destination
Are those we touched along the trail
Making the lesson about courage…strength
Not how we might have failed
For failure is not an option
You took whatever hand was dealt
Pressed forward…moved onward
No matter what you felt
There is true strength in your spirit
While you may wish you were more
I tell you you’re my hero
No matter what’s in store
Our Creator has set aside
A specific need for you
Maybe in something you will say
Or something you may do
Perhaps you lend your strong will
To one tired of holding on
One who would have let go
Before the day was done
What happened was traumatic
A terrible offense
But the good you can do
Will begin to make sense
Teach others of your struggle
Tell them they are not alone
Show them by example
How very much you’ve grown
For life is sometimes not fair
Not what we thought it would be
Thought we had it planned out
As far as the eye could see
But the goals of man are in vain
God has chartered our course
No time for self pity
No room for remorse
For all is as it would be
According to our Great Lord
The cost of our ego’s
Can be more than we can afford
So while you may struggle
On your path along the way
Remember I will be here
Loving you every day
