I felt that I could not go on,
To which, God simply said, "Stop."
Life had become a burden too great to bear,
God answered, "Breathe."
All around me seemed torn apart,
God quietly replied, "Trust."
My heart appeared about to break,
And God whispered, "Love."

So I stopped my struggles and began to breathe
Trusting God to fill my soul with love.
And when the time again was right,
He placed me upon the path to hope and home.
