Overwhelmed with feelings, suddenly feeling attacked

As my mind begins to wander, I think of what I lack

I ponder all the things, I could be doing better

I wonder how all of it, I am going to weather

I feel fatigue come over me, suddenly I am half-full

Things around me feel hectic, bigger than I can control

I look for solutions, but consumed is all I feel

All I want is peace, I need my soul to heal

Heal from all the ruckus, all that seems like such as mess

I need to be reminded, that despite it I am blessed

Caught in a moment, as I’m looking for some air

While God is in the background, whispering, I’m here

Suddenly the noise stops, I start seeing some light

It is as though God is telling me, all will be alright

For moments come and moments go

Some bring peace, while others help us grow

While in the thick of it, when things don’t go my way

I must take time to find His peace, as I go to Him and pray

For when the moment seems just too much to bear

I must remember in the chaos, God too, meets me there

He meets me in my good, He meets me in my bad

He meets me in my joy, He meets me in my sad

In every moment, I must hang onto His promise that is true

That He is always with us, me and also you

In our every moment, even when it feels like a test

That God walks beside us, and that we are truly blessed

When caught in that moment, may we reach out for the Savior’s hand

Find comfort in His love, and peace in His plan
