Standing at the corner
I hear your frustration
Your agony, your pain,
Your cries of sorrow.

Extending my hand to pat your shoulder
I know that I can do so little,
If not nothing
To comfort you.

Everything I say will sound cliché
Words that escaped my mouth sounded lifeless
If not heartless.
Because I could never truly understand.

Everything that I do seems so useless
Actions laced with inconsideration
If not insensitivity,
For I am only so limited.

With much regret,
I have unknowingly inflicted more pain
Whether it was what I did,
or what I did not do.

With much remorse
I have mistakenly deepened the scars,
Whether it was with what I said,
Or what I did not say.

Words fails me at this point of our lives
Try as hard as I may
I am still very limited
And I am so sorry that I could not be more.

But I know Someone
Who understands.
He is the Comforter, the Healer.
and He knows you by name.

He can and He will
Guide you through your hardest time
With His grace and strength
If only you let Him.

I know that you are never alone,
Because He promises to reside in you
And never leave you,
Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise.

I know that as He was always faithful,
He will continue to be to you
Because that is what He is,
His promises to you will never fade.

Let Him take away
The things that He needs to
So that as your faith continues to grow
You are moulded more like Him.

He reaches out His hand to you
Waiting for your acceptance
With His unfailing love
Jesus bridges the thickest wall you raised.

The wall of silence.

sometimes knowing ppl have problems of their own and still not being able to understand them irritates me. I seriously do not know what to do, or how to comfort. Infact many times words that escaped my mouth seems more hurting than comforting, expecially as frustration mounts, greatly shown is my inability to love by my own strength.

This is where God usually steps in to love on my behalf, and the thing about God is that He is always willing to extend His grace and love to those who needs it greatly.
