When things are going bad, it is interesting how time seems to slow down and discomfort hangs around. I read a poem today that talks about how bad things happen, but as long as we keep going, things will eventually be better. See, as long as it is the Lord's will, things will get better with time. Whether it is during this life or after we pass into eternity, time is on our side. Throughout the poem, he talks about "not letting go" and "holding on tight." When we think about our Christian walk and life in general, these words are encouraging and uplifting. So, I want to share this poem with you called "Time is On Our Side" written by Gerard Haughey.
Don't let go, hold on tight!
With all your courage and all your might!
You never know what the future could bring,
So just relax and do your thing.
And even when the going's tough
And you feel like you have had enough
Always remember that time's on our side
Things will turn around, If you're along for the ride!
To find your path, you have to follow your heart!
And even when it's all falling apart...
Keep going! Stay strong!
You'll see that it all turns around before long.
And always remember that time's on our side
Once everything's better, you'll be glad that you tried!
Although you might stumble while pursuing your dreams
Keep fighting! It's never as bad as it seems.
There might be a challenge or two in the way,
But tomorrow will heal all the hurts of today.
You have to remember that time's on our side
No matter what happens, that can't be denied.
Just keep your chin up and you'll quickly discover
That you can make mistakes and completely recover!
There's plenty of time for your dreams to come true
To try, to screw up, and to start again, too
Time's on your side if your in a bind.
When you're tired of trying, just keep that in mind
And rest if you must, but never submit!
For the challenge of life is
Never to Quit!
With all your courage and all your might!
You never know what the future could bring,
So just relax and do your thing.
And even when the going's tough
And you feel like you have had enough
Always remember that time's on our side
Things will turn around, If you're along for the ride!
To find your path, you have to follow your heart!
And even when it's all falling apart...
Keep going! Stay strong!
You'll see that it all turns around before long.
And always remember that time's on our side
Once everything's better, you'll be glad that you tried!
Although you might stumble while pursuing your dreams
Keep fighting! It's never as bad as it seems.
There might be a challenge or two in the way,
But tomorrow will heal all the hurts of today.
You have to remember that time's on our side
No matter what happens, that can't be denied.
Just keep your chin up and you'll quickly discover
That you can make mistakes and completely recover!
There's plenty of time for your dreams to come true
To try, to screw up, and to start again, too
Time's on your side if your in a bind.
When you're tired of trying, just keep that in mind
And rest if you must, but never submit!
For the challenge of life is
Never to Quit!
Let's never give up in our physical and especially our spiritual lives. Let's keep living for the Lord!
