When Everything Goes Wrong



There always is a time in life, when everything
goes wrong, and we have not the heart to smile or
sing a happy song. It seems that when it rains the
ground is very wet, and troubles grow beyond our
strength to conquer and forget. We wonder whether
anyone would take the time to care, and doubt that
Heaven would Ever hear our prayer, but when the sun
comes out we feel no grief today, for Jesus' love
and kindness washes the grief away.
