I love this poem I know GOD will and has help me with my struggles

A Son's Pain

Published: November 2008

Until the end of the day, I sit and pray
Looking towards the heaven, looking toward that day.
The day when life will unfold its plan
To a needy young man trying to make it through this land.
Had dreams of wealth, happiness galore
But only received nightmares, Lord I can't take anymore.
Please lead me to that path that You have set for me
My patience is running short. Where do you want me to be?
I know I am one of your angels, one without the wings
I try to be kind and peaceful, bring to people wonderful things.
But I feel more hurt than happiness, tears continue to flow
I see so much more with my life, but things are happening slow.
So I ask you, Father, please show me your full grace
Because I am tired of hiding my smile underneath the pain on this face.

I love this poem I know GOD will and has help me with my struggles

When I begin to read this the tears started to flow. This poem is everything my son is going through. He is struggling with meth addiction, his wife left him and he lost his job failing a drug test. His little brother, my youngest child died three years ago, he had been using meth. I believe my living son has so much guilt .He keeps all his feelings inside.
I am mailing him this poem and will ask him to read it everyday as a prayer. He doesn't know how to pray. I don't know how to help him, he has withdrawn from me. Thank you for putting my feelings into words.
GOD BLESS
