AS YOU CARRY YOUR CROSSES

This poem is from the Jesus, Mary, Joseph website and was first released on 2-25-09. Stay Strong! Our Lord is with you.


BECAUSE GOD, MY DEAR CHILDREN, HAS SO MUCH IN YOU INVESTED,

THAT IS WHY YOU ARE CONSTANTLY BEING TRIED AND TESTED.

AS GOD’S SWORD NOW CONTINUES THIS EARTH TO PURIFY,

TO HELP SAVE THOSE WHO STRAYED, HE ON YOU MUST RELY.



WHO ELSE BESIDE YOU WOULD CARRY SUCH CROSSES?

WHO ELSE WOULD GO FORTH IN SPITE OF YOUR LOSSES?

YOU CLAIM THAT GOD’S PLAN YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND,

BUT WHERE WOULD YOU BE NOW WITHOUT GOD IN COMMAND?



EVEN THE APOSTLES, WHO FOLLOWED MY SON’S TRAIL,

STUMBLED AND DOUBTED AND DID MANY TIMES FAIL.

AND YET, MY SON, JESUS, ABANDONED THEM NOT

EVEN THOUGH THERE WERE TIMES WHAT HE SAID THEY FORGOT.



WITH THE CROSSES YOU CARRY MY SON CAN RELATE

WHEN HE TOO ASKED HIS FATHER THE CUP TO DISSIPATE.

I KNOW THAT THIS JOURNEY IS HARD AND IS LONG;

EVEN THOUGH YOU FEEL WEAK, IN GOD’S EYES YOU ARE STRONG.



“THY WILL BE DONE”
