remind me

When my heart runs ahead
hold me back
& remind me
You doeth all things well
When my tired mind wonders
& my selfishness seems rampant
remind me
You understand
Every strange emotion all akilter
Every tear sweeping down my face
Every single thing I know that I'm losing
(for a mother is far more than just one)
Every heartache I seek to abate
Every unexplainable moment
You know it all
You listen to every fear
You wrap Your arms about me
& remind me
it
will
be
okay
the Hard will continue
grief may linger
but each step of the future
minutes
seconds
You are here
& that will NEVER CHANGE.
