strength when life’s problems are too
much for you to handle your mind often
goes crazy as it searches for answers
quickly you look at your skills and
think about who you can ask for help
anxiety sets in when there are no quick
answers come back to me in those times
to find peace and rest instead of
rushing forward without a plan look for
my face and ask for help
and I want you to trust me and my plan
waiting patiently for my timing even
when it’s not clear what to do next
anxious striving makes you tired but
quiet confidence makes you strong
believe that I will not leave you when
you need me the most keep the lines of
communication open with me about what’s
going on with you and be ready to wait
without pushing for a quick solution the
people who wait for me will get stronger
that’s what I’m teaching you how to be
persistent the road you’re on is steep
and at times it may seem like it will
never end when you look back you can
remember times of ease and relaxation
but when you look forward you see a path
that keeps going up with no end in sight
it can be hard to keep going every day
that’s something I know people in your
culture value fun and entertainment so
the idea of a hard life seems strange
but self-pity can catch you if you’re
not careful remember that I am in charge
and that your problems are not a mistake
or a punishment instead see them as
valuable chances to show me how much you
depend on me the problems you’re havi
