This Will Pass

I came across this poem by Helen Steiner Rice that seemed to perfectly fit my world at the moment. It encourages me to have hope for a brighter future to come soon...


This Too Will Pass Away

If I can endure for this minute
Whatever is happening to me,
No matter how heavy my heart is,
Or how dark the moment may be --
If I can remain calm and quiet
With all my world crashing about me,
Secure in the knowledge
God loves me
When everyone else seems to doubt me --
If I can but keep on believing
What I know in my heart to be true,
That darkness will fade with the morning
And that this will pass away, too --
Then nothing in life can defeat me
For as long as this knowledge remains
I can suffer whatever is happening
For I know God will break all the chains
That are binding me tight in the darkness
And trying to fill me with fear --
For there is no night without dawning
And I know that my morning is near.
