…a bruised reed he will not break, and a faintly burning wick he will not quench; he will faithfully bring forth justice.
(Isaiah 42:3)
What is it that your heart does need
Perhaps some love or yet some peace
For Christ, He sees the broken reeds
And tends to every bruise that bleeds.
If there is loss that fills your soul
A seeping wound or heart that’s cold
A hiding child whose not been healed
Or one addicted to many pills.
A power is yours to help you through
A hand that’s reaching out to you
His heart is breaking at your pain
And promises honor for shame.
A whisper calls you onward still
Watch and wait by your windowsill
For all your strength in Him can be
Trusted in the raging seas.
The days you feel that you might sink
In despair and can barely think
He gives His mind to you today
To help you navigate the waves.
Pain it is a road somewhere
Perhaps a road you’d never dare
But Christ has seen a heart you see
That He created for coming things.
So, take a breath. Breathe it out.
Rest under the Spirit’s spout
For nothing is unseen by Him
And He will send a gentle wind.
A wind that embraces every tear
Combs your hair and calms your fears
Christ, He is your hope my dear
Promising you that He is near.
