when no one or nothing makes you feel valued


For The Lonely

For the lonely there's a place
next to the glory of God's face
where Love's source emanates
and His grace radiates

There a lone heart's appeal
will be able to feel
Love so pure and so real
every pain it will heal

And the heartaches so rife
that have cut like a knife
and the unending strife
will no longer own that life

With sacred intimacy
faith and hope agree
that God's love will be
given eternally

By freely loving God and fully trusting Him, will not the distresses of life and the pangs of death; will not the corruptions within and the snares without; will not the trials above, and the temptations from beneath, all seem light afflictions, when we can hide ourselves beneath the bulwark of God's promises?

Yes, whether for delight in our quietude, or for strength in our conflict, taking it all to our Lord, must be our daily resort. There may be a promise in the Word which may exactly fit your case or there may be a potent medicine in the great pharmacopoeia of Scripture, and you may miss its comfort or you may yet continue rent, unless you examine and search the Scriptures to discover what He hath said to you!

Anyone with kindness in their heart, whatever their belief, is of value.
