Why is God calling me?



My child, observing your quietness over the phone,
Is sending me a signal that you want to be alone.
I see a dark cloud that's shadowing over you,
with all the sadness, I will break through.
Gather your burdens and write them on paper,
don't be afraid, I will make you feel safer.
Would you prefer to gather your burden in your mind or heart?
After making  your decision, it's time for the healing to start.
I am God who's in control to cast away all your burdens,
a sigh of relief has been given and you're no longer hurting.
My Child, why are you crying?
Heavenly father how great thou art,
I was afraid, along, not knowing where to start.
Thank you for releasing my burden and cares away,
I will forever praise your holy name all day.
I have heard, I've listened, and now I understand,
You were always with me holding my hands
