From Romans 10:12-13: “For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all and is generous to all who call Him. For, ‘Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.'”

Sitting here on a quiet, morning dawn
Drinking coffee, warming a drowsy mind
Passing the time with memories, all wrong
Looking for warmhearted hopes, none to find
Wishing countless troubles would go away
Thinking another day will bring some hope
Realizing now, my dreams are crushed today
Watching out the window, through hopeless scope
Opening a Bible, found by God’s Grace
Inviting me in, His Word reaches out
Sensing a way to change life’s dismal pace
Offering a new path, without a doubt
Witnessing Christ Jesus on a cruel Cross
Accepting my Savior, no longer lost

Yes, exactly. When I ponder on all my problems, I feel shattered. But once I open the Bible and ponder on His goodness and power, He gives me hope. Jesus is my light and my salvation.🙏🏻
Your poem speaks it all— how God can change our circumstance and our thoughts and give us a new life, a new perspective.
