~ Jeremiah 17:12 NIV

and you feel as if you are barely hanging on.

Yet, there is hope even in your weary hour,

if you will just reach for the throne.

Though we are merely peasants in this realm,

there lies mercy at the King’s feet.

Even when occurrences prevail against our abilities,

there is no enemy that our Majesty cannot defeat.

I know your weakened arms will only stretch so far,

and that is okay.

All you have to do is reach out toward Heaven,

and His Highness will reach down the rest of the way.

This suffering that you endure is only a circumstance,

trust in the Royal Almighty to pull you through.

While your own strength may be rapidly fading,

you see, there is nothing He cannot do!

Take heart, for you are not vanquished

even while you are barely hanging on.

Help is only a hand away,

if you will just reach for the throne.
