Where Can I Turn for Peace?

Where can I turn for peace? Where is my solace
When other sources cease to make me whole?
When with a wounded heart, anger, or malice,
I draw myself apart, searching my soul?
Where, when my aching grows, where, when I languish,
Where, in my need to know, where can I run?
Where is the quiet hand to calm my anguish?
Who, who can understand?
He, only One.
He answers privately, reaches my reaching
In my Gethsemane, Savior and Friend.
Gentle the peace He finds for my beseeaching.
Constant he is and kind, love without end.

  3. I can't imagine the sadness, Jen. I'm so so so so sorry you and your family have to deal with this. Where would we be without our Savior to allow us to be a family for eternity? How could we go through this life, knowing sadness, and not know that this is just a small part of our eternal lives? I'm so glad, as your friend, to know that you are turning to the only place possible for true solace and comfort. Thank you for your example and staying close to the Lord!
